The Quebec government says it will ban religious symbols in the province’s daycare centres.
Secularism Minister Jean-François Roberge says there is a “broad consensus” that Quebecers want secularism to be strengthened.
The announcement follows a recommendation made this summer by a committee tasked with advising the province on how to enhance secularism. The committee had called for the ban to be extended to daycares.
Quebec has already banned public sector workers in positions of authority, such as teachers and judges, from wearing religious symbols on the job.
How to create more separation for a problem that never existed. Should the leader of the partie Québecois also remove the word st aka saint for his name since it’s a religious term?
Why none of the canadian leaders condemned the sale of occupied west bank land in synaguoges isn’t that the real issues or insure that there is some problematic statements in place of worship?
“A problem that never existed” right as America falls into christo-fascism. Religion is a cancer, good on them.
Consider yourself lucky that your priest taught you only to lick his boot and not something else.
Because canada is part of the USA right? Also who is in charge of that christo facism yes Trump who do not wear a cross. It is your right to hate all religions just don’t tell people what they should wear
They are separating their government and the stupid kooky religions because of the effect it’s clearly having elsewhere.
If you give a religious nut an inch, he takes a mile. Once this new religious dark age is stomped down, I hope our country has the sense to give the church the same kind of welcome and implement laws so they can’t easily manipulate a bunch of idiots to hate.
Banning signs and clothes won’t change people faith at worst it will push them to extremism Don’t you also realize that to some muslims beard is religious should we ban beard altogether too?
Secularism is state and religion not interfering with each other. Here the state directly interfered to ban mainstream religious clothes yet it is imposible to ban all signs of the hundreds of other religions
Beards aren’t religious and neither is the st for street. You are being silly and honestly, kind of an ass.
they banned symbols and prayers for public servant and in public parks because it’s a form of proselytizing. I don’t care for your religion, I shouldn’t have to deal with it when walking in a park or talking to a police officer. And that’s not mentioning all the hate, manipulation and vile bullshit that comes with it. Even if it was all good, I shouldn’t have to deal with it.

Oh fuck off.
You care more about what people want to wear than the sale of occupied land in synaguoges. It tell me a lot about your almost non existant moral compass
Lol, get triggered snowflake.
I am not triggered by a genocide supporter and the sale of occupied land in synagogues. Is doing illegal stuffs like that secularism for you, you hypocrite
Lol, religious puppet says what?
Genocide supporter
Lol, do you have anything else? You brought up a point that has nothing to do with the article.
Nice attempt at deflection but you’re not clever.
Now go back to your hole.
It has to do with the topic you. A real secular country would never allow illegal and unsecular stuffs like selling occupied land in places of cult and would not interfere in what people should wear. Those sale mean palestinians getting expulsed from their land while banning certain clothes or item doesn’t hurt anybody.
How are you any better than a person forcing his wife or daughter to wear a hijab? You are the same just in the oppose extremity
