Cineplex confirmed, in a press release sent to the media, that it will abide by the health measures imposed by the Legault government, including a ban on the sale of foodstuffs at facilities located in the red zone.

Last week, the ban sparked complaints from some movie theater owners, including Vincent Gozo, who argued that it was not profitable to reopen theaters if the sale of food was not allowed. Mr Guzzo also reiterated yesterday that Cinémas Guzzo will remain closed until the Legault government authorizes the reopening of their food counters.
