Quebec Premier François Legault suggested Quebec would soon introduce a bill against staging anti-vax protests in front of schools and hospitals.

"I cannot accept to see anti-vaccine people in front of our schools and hospitals," the premier said at a press conference on Tuesday.

"I will use whatever is necessary to stop that."

Legault further suggested his government is exploring how it can implement such a law, promising to table a bill "soon."

It's unclear how the government will proceed, however.
