In 2019, the Quebec National Assembly passed Bill 21. It prohibits,
among other things, certain state employees in positions of
authority (including teachers, prison guards, police officers, and
justices of the peace) from wearing religious symbols when
providing public services. Many political commentators in English
Canada denounced the law as running counter to Canadian
multiculturalism and human rights. Why did the Quebec government
adopt this particular form of state secularism? And why did it
garner public support? The Challenges of a Secular Quebec analyzes
the statute from different angles to provide a nuanced, respectful
discussion of its intentions and principles that recognizes the
province’s singular history in North America.
