Genevieve Guilbault, elected for the Coalition in Quebec City's Louis-Hebert riding, said Quebecers gave the Coalition a clear mandate to prohibit public servants wielding authority from wearing religious symbols such as the Muslim hijab and Jewish kippa, according to Vancouver Courier. Those who lose their jobs after refusing to respect the new rules will be the authors of their own misfortune, she said. Public servants in positions of authority who refuse to remove religious symbols will be assigned to different jobs or dismissed, a spokeswoman for the Coalition Avenir Quebec transition team said Wednesday. Guilbault said when the new law is adopted, there will be a transition period for any judges, police officers, teachers, prosecutors and prison guards affected. It will be up to them at that point to make the necessary choice. Those people will be free to relocate to another job that will not be in an authority situation, she said.
