LINK Quebec's religious symbol ban targets minorities in the name of secularism | Martin Patriquin | Opinion | The Guardian
FTA: The CAQ government claims Bill 21 will be a bulwark protecting Quebec’s cherished and longstanding secularism. Yet by fixating on religious minorities, it actually serves as a fig leaf for the government’s own nativist tendencies – and is a reminder how fear and antipathy tend to beget bad, dangerous laws.

Well, as long as the White Knights have something to shriek about, that's the most important thing here, right?
Focusing on "protecting minorities," atheist White Knights will welcome GREATER religious presence into public life.
You'd think someone here would welcome a pro-secular policy.

@OwlInASack I don't know what that means. There are always those that have to say mean stuff. just because someone has a different.opinion.
@OwlInASack White supremacists are racists, ie Alt right and white nationals,
and have come out from under their rocks since the Potus has both blatantly and in political code maintained his popularity with them by condoning the ideology of this horrific group.
everything in Quebec seems to be filtered through the Pure Lane narrative
