A video that went viral on social media shows the police raiding a Quebec residence after a neighbor reported a private gathering that had violated provincial COVID-19 rules.

The video (Warning: contains offensive language) was filmed at a home in Gatineau on Dec. 31, 2020. The New Year’s Eve gathering of six people with individuals from outside the household was a clear violation of Quebec’s public health restrictions.
