Quebec's largest school board has come out against the province's plan to ban teachers from wearing religious symbols in the classroom, saying it runs contrary to the school board's mission and would be difficult to enforce.

The Commission scolaire de Montréal (CSDM) outlined its position in a detailed, 24-page brief that will be presented at next month's hearings on Bill 21.

The CSDM, however, stopped short of saying it won't comply with the rules if the law is passed unchanged.
