Multicultural Society: Public School Students

public school students: Canadians live in a secular, multicultural society in which the Lords Prayer is no longer recited by public school students and Christian hymns are not taught to such pupils, but citizens are free to practise their religion at home and elsewhere, according to The Chronicle Herald. However, remnants of yesteryear still exist in societal domains such as Nova Scotias justice system. Just ask public servants who have to swear an oath, such as police and corrections officers, jurors or people required to testify in court and Our 21st-century institutions are run without the religious influence present generations ago, and democratic governance isnt steered by those in power promoting their spiritual beliefs.
