    No catch, but some people don’t like that it affects women who wear hijabs.

    Frankly, I’m not even Quebecois and I agree with the law. If you’re going for your driver’s test and you’re obviously gay, you’re going to feel pretty nervous if your tester is wearing some fundie garb, whether it’s a hijab or a cross around their neck. Worse still if you’re going to apply for welfare.

      You used examples where the law doesn’t apply, but imagine the same situation in front of a judge and they rule against you…

        Yeah like I said, I’m not from QC, so I don’t know the letter of the law. But that’s a great example too.

      Don’t talk on behalf of gay people you know nothing.

      Hijabs are not “fundie garb”. I am not treated badly by hijabi women and have never heard anyone complain of such.

      What a vile attempt to insinuate amnosity between groups you have no involvement in.
