So it\u2019s important that we develop measures and have an action plan. It remains a huge frustration for people who    come from other countries with quality baggage, and we have to find a way for people to contribute.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>    The issue of integration has been to the fore in Quebec politics and society in recent years, with the previous Parti Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois government having tabled a    Quebec Charter of Values (<em>Charte de la la\u00efcit\u00e9<\/em> or <em>Charte des valeurs qu\u00e9b\u00e9coises<\/em>), which, among other measures, would have prohibited    certain public sector workers from wearing or displaying &#8220;conspicuous&#8221; religious symbols.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Weil made it clear that she does not wish for the consultation to become a debate of such a Charter. \u201cI think we have to talk about    <em>les vraies affaires<\/em> (the real issues) . . . A charter of values is not <em>les vraies affaires<\/em>,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p> Please visit:  <br \/> <a href=\"https:\/\/teo-bg.com\/en\/tractors\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Our Sponsor<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The government of Quebec is preparing to launch a consultation with people living in the province later this month.
