She also said that CDN-NDG borough mayor Montgomery, who said she'd refuse, will also abide.

Montreal Mayor Valérie Plante said while she is opposed to Bill 21, she would abide by the ban on religious garb if the law is passed in the National Assembly.
Introduced last month by the Coalition Avenir
Québec government, Bill 21 would bar public school teachers, police
officers and other civil servants from wearing religious clothing — such
as a kippa, a hijab or a turban — on the job.
Plante has
denounced the law and said she looks forward to speaking at coming
hearings in Quebec City to explain Montrealers of all ethnic backgrounds
live without conflict caused by religious symbols. On Monday, city
council will also issue a bipartisan statement against the proposed law.
