PSP states there is no "general rule" for covering the face at protests

The PSP clarifies that there is no blanket rule regarding face coverings in demonstrations, stating that each situation must be evaluated based on specific circumstances and legal exceptions such as health, professional, artistic, safety, or weather reasons. The force notes that police intervention is not automatic and depends on risk assessment, following the recent legislation that prohibits face-covering in public spaces with specific exemptions and penalties.
