Pressure increases on Supreme Court to allow intervenors in person at Bill 21 hearing
September 12, 2025
A former federal justice minister has asked the Supreme Court of Canada to allow more lawyers to appear in person for a landmark Charter case involving Quebec’s secularism law.
Allan Rock, who was justice minister from 1993 to 1997, invoked reasons of “public confidence” and the “appearance of democracy” in a letter dated Sept. 10. He is counsel for the Samara Centre for Democracy, a Toronto-based charity that promotes civic engagement. It is one of a record 38 intervenors in the Quebec secularism case.
