Behind all the official reasons cited, there must be fear of losing qualified personnel. But if an exception for healthcare, why not for daycare or education?

Québec songe à retirer le crucifix de l’Assemblée nationale

Interesting. Rather than exploring the opening by former premiers Parizeau, Bouchard and Landry, we come back to the crucifix in the National Assembly. Likely a trial balloon. But no right for institutions or municipalities to have exemptions from the proposed Charter, save for a transition period.
