Coalition Avenir Quebec: For Premier Pauline Marois Parti Quebecois government, the as-yet-undefined proposal to limit the use of religious headgear in publicly-funded settings appears to have the makings of a political winner, according to The Star. The third-party Coalition Avenir Quebec has signaled that it would support some version of a ban, which means that Maroiss minority government could get a bill through the provinces National Assembly and Federal reaction to Quebecs proposed ban on religious symbols speaks volumes. Liberal leader Justin Trudeau is firmly but politely opposed. Tom Mulcairs New Democrats hope the whole issue will miraculously go away. Prime Minister Stephen Harpers Conservatives are vigorously trying to say nothing. Polling show that 57 per cent of Quebecers and 65 per cent of francophone Quebecers agree with the idea.
