It’s Quebec. they love to pick and choose their hate. yes it’s specifically targeted towards Muslims, no they wont’ remove Christian symbols, yes Quebec has always been pithy like this.

Remember back in the 90s when they wanted to ditch us but keep the money? this is just more pithy Quebecois bullshit.

Hey look, me at 13

This legislation unfairly targets Muslims, in particular women.

It’s not a daycare though. Neither is the oratory.

Freedom of expression is also protected under federal law.

Never heard this one. Care to explain on it ?

Well now you’ve heard it. That’s your explanation - don’t play dumb, it’s not becoming.

No. I’m genuinely interested by your take. I’m all in to say that Quebec is one of the most racist province but I want (liked) some external experience

Edit: also I’ve heard Quebec is racist as Alberta but never as Manitoba

Just underneath that picture it says it was not implemented.

In 2013, a minority PQ government proposed the notorious “charter of Quebec values,” aiming to ban religious symbols for public servants, but it went nowhere after the PQ lost the 2014 election.

I’m an anti-theist and believe religion does untold damage to society. In my perfect world I’m completely for the removal of all religion iconography in publicly funded institutions. This includes clothing, jewellery, and gaudy John 3:16 t-shirts.

If it’s private, do whatever you want. If you want a grotesque image of your dead god on a cross hanging on your wall, you do you. I just don’t want to pay for that out of my tax dollars.

That said, I understand people wear a bunch of stupid shit for their gods, and that is a freedom of expression that should be protected. If someone wears a magic cross, bulletproof underwear of protection, or has to hide their hair because their god hates hairdos, then whatever. That in itself probably isn’t going to hang black people, start an ethnic genocide, or fly planes into buildings.

As long as these religious kooks don’t spout their hateful superstitious bullshit to the kids, I’m fine with it.

Religion is social cancer, and religiously indoctrinating children should count as abuse

It should be illegal for children to practice religion, let them grow into adults, and then they can make their own decisions.

Invisibilising women will only create more hatred and discension. This is not how what you want will work.

And nobodies is practicing religion into a CPE it goes against law already

Right up until the not withstanding clause is invoked…

Can I ask what pendulum? Because Quebec has been doing this for decades.

I couldn’t care less about any organized religion and IMO they all do more harm than good; however, being Quebec, this is 100% a poke to flame hatred towards Muslims… entirely hypocritical

There’s a bunch of cross on school outer wall troughs out Quebec. The CAQ didn’t see it important to rip them out because « they’re patrimoine »

Hypocritical fuckers

Cool, then if it isn’t allowed to be practiced in schools, then there’s no problem with this, it’s just a continuation of existing policy.

There is no world where children being religiously indoctrinated creates LESS hatred and division.

The problem is not practicing, the problem is some faith ask their people to clothe in a certain way.

Invisibilising this people will not bring what the government search

Is a Christmas decoration a religious symbol? Or is Christmas now entirely commercial.

You keep using that word like it means anything in this context.

What people do in private is not really enforceable

But in public no religion should be shown prefrence or even respect.
