Canada’s largest Muslim organisation is outraged over a bill introduced by the Quebec government that would ban headscarves for school support staff and students.
“In Quebec, we made the decision that state and the religion are separate,” said Education Minister Bernard Drainville, CBC News reported. “And today, we say the public schools are separate from religion.”
But the National Council of Canadian Muslims (NCCM), who are challenging in the Supreme Court the original bill that forbids religious symbols being worn by teachers, say the new bill is another infringement on their rights and unfairly targets hijab-wearing Muslims.
“This renewed attack on the fundamental rights of our community is just one of several recent actions taken by this historically unpopular government to bolster their poll numbers by attacking the rights of Muslim Canadians,” the NCCM said in a social media post.
You are right all women should be forced to go to school naked.
Despite all your raging comments in this thread, I still don’t know what your stance is. The weak straw man argument isn’t helping.
Preventing people from practicing their religion is obviously bad. Especially when there is no justification to do so.
This is akin to Uyghur “reeducation camps” and I am not being hyperbolic. But apparently it is only bad when China does it.
