Quebec government to table bill to ban prayer in public places
Description
August 29, 2025
The Quebec government says it is planning to ban prayer in public places as part of a move to strengthen secularism in the province. The announcement makes good on a suggestion put forward in December by Premier François Legault, who said he didn’t want to see people praying in public parks or on streets. On Thursday, Secularism Minister Jean-François Roberge confirmed he will table legislation this fall to outlaw the practice.
