Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was offended by questions from the Bloc Québécois saying “Canadians” should think about “their business”, instead of funding a legal challenge to Bill 21, which became the Secularism Act of State.
His “home”, well, it’s home too. I am from Quebec. And I have a right to make sure all Quebecers respect their rights like everyone else across the country.sent Mr. Trudeau on Wednesday during questioning, which was warmly applauded by his parliamentary group.
The parliamentary leader of the Bloc Québécois, Alain Therrien, only told him that the will of Quebecers to strengthen state secularism at home, in Quebec, they will take care of it.
If the people of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, want state and religion to go hand in hand, that’s not our problem. They can get tattoos. “In God We Trust“In the face, we don’t care, that’s not the problem. But at home, we want the secularism of the state and we voted for thathe continued.
The tone of the previous question was rising, when Mr. Therrien declared that about Bill 21 Canadians have nothing to do with it, it’s not in their business provided that the law is voted on by elected members of the National Assembly, and it applies only to Quebec.
” I’m sure I didn’t hear it right, I’m sure it was unintentional for the honorable member to suggest that everyone who disagrees and challenges this law before the Court in Quebec are not real Quebecers. “
In recent months, the Prime Minister has repeatedly voiced his deep disagreement with Bill 21, believing no one should lose a job because of their religion.
Quebec law on state secularism prohibits, since 2019, people in positions of authority displaying religious symbols. This law, which has a grandfather clause prohibiting the removal of persons already in office, applies, among other things, to teachers.
