Quebec creates new committee to study whether secularism rules are being followed
MONTREAL — The Quebec government is creating a committee to make recommendations on how to strengthen secularism in the province.
Announced this morning, the committee will study whether Quebec’s secularism law, Bill 21, is being respected.
The government says it will also document alleged religious infiltration of Quebec institutions.
The committee will analyze measures in place elsewhere in the world to reinforce state secularism, and will deliver a report by Aug. 20.
