Wake me up when we will be allowed to burn churches at last. These mental oppression/degeneration institutions should go down.

Quebec creates new committee to study whether secularism rules are being followed
(www.coastreporter.net)
A good chunk of them have already been converted into condos and shops. I even hooked up with a guy that lived in one of those.
Christianity died in the 70s in Québec, you won't find many people under like 40 that still gives a crap about religion in Québec.
The 2021 census suggests otherwise.
If I understand the wording correctly, of the 8.3 million responses, 5.4 million identify as Christian, 2.3 million don't identify with a religion, the remainder list a variety of religions, each of which are tiny numbers by comparison.
A lot of those identify as christian because of cultural heritage and because it's the "not some brown people's religion" but are non-practicing or straight up non-believers otherwise. Those that do maybe go in the church once a year for the christmas stuff
The churches are packed with mostly tourists and the parking lot is filled with Ontario plates.
You're just not gonna find many nutjobs like the rest of Canada and the US here. Even my grandparents pretty much just go out of habit from the old times. I haven't once been in a religious argument in Québec my whole life. It's basically unavoidable in the US.
The quiet revolution is a fairly interesting piece of history.
I run into lots of people who superficially identify as Christian, but haven't set foot in a church (or do so only on Christmas Eve) or cracked open a Bible since they were preteens being forced to attend services by their parents, and I doubt people in Quebec are all that different. I'd bet that no more than half that 5.4 million are practicing Christians.
Exactly.
The latest secularism laws that were voted in recently, while a bit extreme in some cases, are just the continuation of this revolution from religion.
