QUEBEC — The Quebec Liberals have decided to stick with their traditional position against a ban on religious symbols for state employees.
Emerging from a two-day party caucus of the party’s 29 MNAs, interim leader Pierre Arcand said after a short internal discussion on what position to take when the Coalition Avenir Québec tables its bill banning symbols, the consensus was to not change policies.
“The Liberal Party is the party of individual freedoms,” Arcand told reporters at a news conference. “Freedom of religion is entrenched in the Charter of Human Rights and Feedoms so we will never endorse the policy of the CAQ.”
