Outbreaks in Quebec City take a toll
CHSLD Saint-Brigid’s Home, in Quebec City, has just passed a milestone of 100 employees infected with COVID-19 since the start of its outbreak at the end of November.
The most recent report from the CIUSSS de la Capitale-Nationale shows a new case among employees at the residence where 100 workers were already infected. This is the worst infection toll for health-care workers at a care home in the region.
Seven residents are still infected at the CHSLD, which has already seen 34 deaths.
Also in Quebec City, the CHSLD Sacré-Coeur and the Centre d’hébergement Louis-Hébert are among the residences the government considers in critical condition.
At the CHSLD Sacré-Coeur, 48 per cent of residents are infected, and 10 people have died due to COVID-19.
The Centre d’hébergement Louis-Hébert recorded 17 cases among its clients, representing 38 per cent. It has reported three cases in the last 24 hours and three deaths since the start of the outbreak.

The City of Pointe-Claire would like to inform you that the Bob-Birnie arena will be closed for its annual maintenance as of Monday, April 29. The Annex rink will reopen to the public on Monday, May 13, and the arena’s Main rink will be accessible as of Monday, June 3.
Public skating will resume on May 13, and the summer public activities programming will begin on June 3 when both rinks have reopened to the public.
In addition to the annual maintenance of the facility, two renovation projects are also scheduled to start at the same time:
Installation of new sound systems
The City will be replacing its current sound systems in both the Main rink and Annex rink, to offer arena visitors a better overall experience, whether watching from the stands or participating in on-ice activities. This project is expected to be conducted throughout the month of May.
Renovation of locker rooms in the Main Rink
The City will also be renovating the five locker rooms located in the Main rink, to bring up to date the amenities currently available to participants. These renovations are expected to begin in early May and will be completed by mid-August.
For all information about the Bob-Birnie arena, visit the arena’s page on our website.
We haven’t seen a new iPad in years, but Apple seems likely to change that in just a few weeks. All signs point to the release of new iPad models in the first week of May.
Apple CEO Tim Cook posted this GIF for the virtual event to X on Tuesday morning.
This morning, I received an email invite for a virtual Apple event, scheduled for May 7 at 7 a.m. PT (10 a.m. ET). The invite, which says “Let Loose,” shows a drawing of a hand holding an Apple Pencil. Considering the iPad is the only device that uses the Pencil — that doesn’t leave much to the imagination.
Apple’s been expected to release new OLED-screened iPad Pros with newly designed Pencils and Magic Keyboard cases. New iPad Airs are also expected, including a larger-screened 12.9-inch model. Apple’s iPad Air lineup tends to be slightly redesigned versions of previous-model iPad Pros, so just look to the M2 iPad Pro lineup for a sense of what the next Airs could be. These would be the first new iPads since the iPad Pro M2 model arrived in late 2022.
