Protests held over Bill 14

Quebec Military parents assembled yesterday at a school north of Quebec City to fight Bill 14.

According to CBC News, the controversial Parti Quebecois Bill would prohibit Quebec military parents to send their children to English schools.

 

If the bill passes, Quebec military parents would lose their exemption reports the CBC.

 

Paul Cormier is a military parent  frustrated with Bill 14.

 

“Why put this added stress where it’s not needed?” said Cormier.

 

The meeting was held at a school near the Valcartier military base.

Almost 85 per cent of the students enrolled have parents in the armed forces.
