Some online comments referred to Quebec’s secular charter, which proposes to ban religious symbols for public employees while on the job. “The boundaries of what is sayable and what isn't have moved more in the last six months than I can ever remember in my lifetime in Quebec," said Daniel Weinstock, a philosophy and law professor at McGill University. Weinstock said the charter has made it socially acceptable for people to say racist things they previously might have kept to themselves, adding that the Parti Québécois needs to do more to ensure the charter debate continues in a respectful, calm manner.
