Quebec court temporarily suspends Bill 62’s face-covering provision

📅 1 December 2017 📍 Canada

The Quebec Superior Court stayed Section 10 of Bill 62 pending the coming into force of accommodation provisions. NCCM, CCLA and Warda Naili had challenged restrictions affecting niqab wearers’ access to public services. The interim order protected access while further questions remained. It was a temporary suspension of a particular provision, not a final invalidation of the entire statute.
