Quebec's Bill 62: Islamophobic Law Covers Up Neoliberal Agenda

Published: Nov. 24, 2017, 8:46 p.m.

Bill 62, Qu\xe9bec's notorious religious neutrality law, is a clear attack on the rights of Muslim women in the province.

But Montr\xe9al lawyer Sibel Ataogul, co-founder of l'Association des Juristes Progressistes, also sees the law as an ideologically useful tool for the province's political elites.

Does pandering to xenophobia allow Phillip Couillard\u2019s Liberal government a freer hand in implementing a neoliberal policy agenda?
