In Quebec, discrimination against people of faith is not only real but is mandated by the government.
The Canadian province’s Bill 21 has been the subject of a lot of controversies. The law bans all public employees in the province, including teachers, from wearing religious symbols at work. That includes the crucifix, kippahs, turbans, hijabs, and more.

The law is a blatant form of discrimination against people of faith. Whether someone is Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Sikh, or practices a different religion, he or she should have the right to practice that faith how he or she sees fit as long as it is not hurting other people.
