The public health restrictions in Quebec are loosening up and while there will soon be a mad dash to gyms, restaurant terrasses and backyard barbecues, summer vacation options are slim pickings. The Quebec government wants its residents to have a good time without heading abroad, so it's offering up discounts on provincial park passes as well as subsidized activities and vacation packages. SEPAQ passes half off starting June 1For the second consecutive year, access to Quebec's 23 provincial parks, known as SEPAQS, will be half off for the first 140,000 customers. "For each adult who sets foot in a SEPAQ park, $62 is generated for restaurants, shops, and local purchases," she said. There's the Explore Québec program that offers travel packages with participating travel agencies at a minimum of 25 per cent off.
