Mayor: Bill and Use Words

mayor: We don't need to go to extremes, Trudeau said, according to CTV. We can debate the bill without going too far. Speaking to reporters in Ottawa, Trudeau repeated his opposition to Bill 21 but said Hampstead Mayor William Steinberg's comments were unacceptable and that the mayor needs to apologize. There are people who are extremely worried by this bill, and I understand them. Bill 21 would prohibit public servants in positions of authority -- including teachers -- from wearing religious symbols. But we shouldn't use words like that. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
