School board vows to disregard Quebec bill restricting religious symbols

Ryan Remiorz/The Canadian Press

But even before the text is made public, one school board has declared its intention to disobey a law that it says will violate the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Opposition to the government’s plan is growing. On Wednesday night, the English Montreal School Board adopted a motion declaring its refusal to implement legislation restricting the wearing of religious symbols.

Julien Feldman, chairman of the EMSB’s human resources committee, said the board has never received a complaint from a student or parent about a teacher’s religious symbol.

Throw some of them in jail, then they will understand the law !!!

Can public servants wear anything they want? Do clients of public services have the right to deal with them without the religion of the public servants being apparent? Do public servants have the right to wear clothes that show their political views e.g. political party,abortion?

Quebec considers it to be uni-cultural, not multicultural. Quebecois are proud of their culture and intend to preserve it. Immigrants are welcome but must conform to Quebecois culture.

Now we have tRUMP bigots in the Quebec House of Assembly!!

School boards are working with what they are given. If you don't want the province to turn into a Sharia run state, stop the migration from 'Muslim fanatic' countries. Its that simple.
