The trial was initiated by a former Hasidic couple who say the Quebec government failed to ensure they received the education to which they were entitled

Yochonon Lowen and Clara Wasserstein, who say they got almost no secular education in private religious schools, are seeking a judgment against the province and the Boisbriand Hasidic schools declaring they violated provincial education laws.

Lawyers for the province and the Hasidic community have acknowledged there were problems in the past but say they’ve been addressed through recent legislation and home-schooling agreements between the communities and the school boards.
