Quebec: Parti Quebecois

Parti Quebecois: In an open letter published in the Gazette, about 20 professors and researchers at Montreal universities and hospitals say the PQ approach to immigration ignores the success of Quebec's longstanding multiculturalism approach, according to CTV. The group also points out the double standard in proclaiming obviously Christian symbols in the National Assembly, Quebec's flag, and on Mount Royal as being exempt from any religious legislation and MONTREAL - Mental health professionals are rejecting the Parti Quebecois's divisive Charter, saying it would violate human rights and legalize discrimination. "In the last 50 years, we have made real strides in moving beyond this history of discrimination in public institutions, including schools, hospitals, social services, police and the courts. Now, the charter proposal is sowing the seeds of dissension by proposing a policy that violates fundamental human rights and creates an environment openly hostile to minorities," wrote the group.
