Quebec plans new law to ban religious symbols in daycare centres

The Quebec government is moving to prohibit the wearing of religious symbols in the province’s daycare centres, expanding its existing secularism policies in early childhood settings.

The decision follows recommendations made earlier this year by a provincial advisory committee that studied ways to strengthen secularism laws.

The strike has shut down classrooms for about 51,000 teachers and 750,000 students in public, separate, and francophone schools across the province.

Interior Health testing virtual emergency care to support rural hospitals

Interior Health is planning a pilot project that would use virtual emergency care to help keep small hospitals in British Columbia’s Interior open during staffing shortages. The proposal would link hospitals in Clearwater, Nakusp, Lillooet, and Princeton, allowing physicians to share responsibilities through a combination of on-site and remote support.
