Quebec Bar: Immigration Minister

Montreal Gazette Dept: Rights advocates and minority groups have protested that Bill 94 stigmatizes Islamic women, but Weil noted yesterday she has support from the Quebec Bar Association, as well as an association representing French-language school boards and the Federation des femmes du Quebec, which has its reservations, according to Montreal Gazette. Other provinces are looking at Bill 94 and will probably have a similar debate, she added. - Provincial Immigration Minister Kathleen Weil is determined to push ahead with Bill 94, which would ban the wearing of the niqab by a woman dispensing or receiving government services, education or health care. "We're not going to change the spirit of this legislation," Weil said. As reported in the news.
