Coolopolis: Disenfranchising property owners contributes to corrupt city politics

Coolopolis: Disenfranchising property owners contributes to corrupt city politics

Occasionally a strange idea takes hold and gets political support. For example in 1985 the PQ passed Bill 29 which banned Jews and Muslims and other non-Protestants from voting in PSBGM board elections. Similarly only Catholics were to be allowed to vote in Catholic School Board elections. Those boards are history, of course, as the boards are based on language now.
