Unified Message: COTE SAINT-LUC

COTE SAINT-LUC: Several religious leaders and hundreds of residents gathered in front of Cote Saint Luc city hall Monday to send a unified message to the Quebec government that democracy means protecting the rights of minorities, according to CTV. The event started with several seasonal lighting rituals, including the lighting of the citys Christmas tree, as cultures and religions mixed and COTE SAINT-LUC -- The city of Cote Saint-Luc, the town of Hampstead and two french universities are all taking stands against Bill 60 and in favour of religious freedom. I just think the law is so odious and I think that my residents were getting nervous. They were getting upset, some of them, even telling me they were considering leaving Quebec because they're made to feel unwelcome here, said Cote Saint-Luc Mayor Anthony Housefather.
