22:38Now PlayingSeveral parents recently pleaded with a Quebec Superior Court judge to uphold the province's religious symbols ban to shield their children from exposure to the hijab, which they believe conveys a "pernicious" sexist message. The witnesses testifying in support of the law, known as Bill 21, said they believed the hijab always represents sexist values, regardless of why someone decides to wear it. The parents, all immigrants from Muslim-majority countries, are the first witnesses to be called by defenders of the Laicity Act in a court case brought by opponents of the law who say it is unconstitutional. Among the most controversial provisions in Bill 21 is a prohibition on public teachers from wearing religious symbols at work.
