Quebec expands secularism law, restricts public prayer

What happened: Quebec has introduced a new bill that broadens its 2019 law on religious symbols, adding limits on public prayer and other measures.

Why it matters:

  • It affects how religion is expressed in public spaces across Quebec.
  • The law impacts religious communities and public institutions within the province.

MNN Take: The expanded law aims to reinforce secularism by regulating religious expression in public, continuing Quebec's approach to separating religion from government affairs.
