ÃÛ½ÛÖ±²¥to open up meeting to the public on religious symbols issue

Montreal - Monday, February 4, 2019

An emergency meeting of the ÃÛ½ÛÖ±²¥’s Human Resources Committee will be held on Wednesday, February 6 at 6000 Fielding Avenue in NDG, with a portion open to the public at 7:15 pm to seek their input on the provincial government’s proposed law prohibiting civil servants — including teachers, judges, police officers and prosecutors— from wearing religious symbols in the workplace.

Commissioner Julien Feldman, the chair of the ÃÛ½ÛÖ±²¥Human Resources Committee, said that he is inviting anyone who would like to share their thoughts on this subject to do so during this meeting.

The ÃÛ½ÛÖ±²¥Council of Commissioners strongly opposed the former Parti québécois’ proposed Charter of Values, adopting a resolution that it had no intention to comply with the law. 

Mr. Feldman said that this feedback will provide important information for an ÃÛ½ÛÖ±²¥action plan on the proposed legislation.
