“Demonstration: the police distributed to vehicles immobilized on the outskirts of @AssnatQc (the National Assembly) courtesy notices | In the next few hours, the parking tolerance in connection with the demonstration will be lifted,” tweeted the SPVQ on Sunday at 9:12 a.m.
The Quebec police, however, did not indicate a specific time from which this “tolerance” will no longer be appropriate.
