Green light for the health pass, the executive satisfied, new calls to demonstrate

The Constitutional Council validated most of the law that will extend the health pass to new public places as of Monday, as well as a vaccination requirement for caregivers, a decision that satisfied the executive but aroused the anger of opponents and new calls for demonstrations on Saturday.

Drama, thunder, sledgehammer...
