Bill 21 is a bill of which was passed in June 2019. It prohibits Quebec citizens from expressing religion regardless if that’s a religious symbol or a clothing article, or etc. which symbolizes one. 

The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms denotes a whole section to “Religious Freedoms”. This alone is quite the opposite of what the bill represents, making it a clear violation of citizen rights.

These citizens are impacted daily as the bill interferes with their beliefs, restricting them from basic needs as well as the life everyone is entitled to. For instance, workers, specifically teachers have lost their jobs due to the bill. 

In order to help bring awareness, with the end goal of having the bill repealed, myself and three fellow classmates chose it as our final project. We created the name “RLAC”, (long form: Religious Liberty for All Canadians) with the tagline “We believe in what you believe”. All in all, it represents what we know is a serious problem, let alone violation of basic rights, that has gone on for years too long. So Quebec, REPEAL BILL 21 NOW.
