Islamism And Quebec

Much has been said these last few days about Quebec's Values Charter, pro and con. This article contains a little germ of truth our lefties don't wish to acknowledge. Vis
"Claire L’Heureux-Dubé claims she sees more veiled women in Quebec than in her travels to Muslim countries."
[---]
"The province’s minority government argues that its initiative will bring to heel a growing wave of unreasonable faith-based exceptions from societal and workplace rules, guarantee equality of the sexes in the province and reinforce the religious neutrality of the state.

The many critics in the political, legal and academic arenas warn the proposal would violate religious freedoms already enshrined in Canadian and Quebec charter rights and inevitably be ruled unconstitutional."
What's next, I wonder? Quebec's Values Charter takes aim at all faiths, not just Islam, yet, unlike this former Supreme Court Judge, it seems too chicken shit to call a spade a spade.
