Quebec Premier Francois Legault to address secularism bill in video message
MONTREAL — Quebec Premier Francois Legault will address his government’s controversial secularism bill tonight in a speech delivered via video.
Legault’s office says the message will be broadcast on the premier’s official website and Facebook page at 5:30 p.m.
The legislation tabled last week would prohibit public servants in positions of authority — including teachers, police officers, Crown prosecutors and prison guards — from wearing religious symbols.
