Brief regarding Bill 84 presented to la Commission des relations avec les citoyens
This is a broad, powerful Bill. It could well reach into every part of Quebec society and involve all levels of government, professional bodies, community organizations and their events, employers and employees, newly arrived Quebecers and those who have lived here for generations.
It is no ordinary piece of legislation. Bill 84 is being accorded a status equal to that of the Quebec Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms, and, it is clear, is intended to be one of the pillars upon which an eventual proposal for a constitution of Quebec will be based.
