Misstep at SAAQclic, College of Physicians, and Aquatic Centers
Quebec residents who own private pools have been granted an additional year to comply with safety regulations, as the enforcement deadline has been pushed back by ten days. The original regulation, adopted in 2021, concerned the installation of fences, latches, and barriers that provide access to the pool.
Meanwhile, negotiations between the College of Physicians of Quebec and the Quebec government are ongoing. The College has expressed concerns about pressure tactics during these negotiations, although the specific nature of these tactics remains unspecified. The College has called for an end to such tactics, urging its members to suspend them during the ongoing discussions.
In a separate development, Karl Malenfant, the architect of SAAQclic and a former civil servant, has been caught lying during the Gallant Commission. He admitted to sending documents to his personal address, which he claimed he had never seen. This revelation has not affected the priority of the SAAQ's digital shift, according to Malenfant, who stated that it was not his top concern.
The Code of Ethics of the College of Physicians of Quebec prohibits any form of pressure tactics in the context of individual or collective action. The College has not explicitly named the leader calling for the cessation of printing techniques during negotiations with the government.
The delay in the enforcement of the residential pool safety regulations and the ongoing negotiations between the College of Physicians of Quebec and Quebec highlight the complexities of governance and the importance of ethical conduct in negotiations. As these issues unfold, both parties will continue to work towards finding solutions that prioritise safety and fairness.
