Quebec says Bill 21 opponents are trying to overturn established law

August 12, 2025

The Quebec government says legal opponents challenging its secularism law at the Supreme Court of Canada are merely rehashing old, failed arguments in an effort to overturn established legal precedent.

On Tuesday, Quebec filed 100 pages of legal arguments to the Supreme Court ahead of a hearing in which it will defend Bill 21 in court for a third time. The province won two previous decisions in the lower courts in Quebec, which led to the current appeal at the Supreme Court.

In late July, Steffen Skjottelvik set out on what he knew would be a perilous journey through the Canadian North. Carrying a rifle and his backpack, and with his two huskies by his side, the Norwegian hiker planned to traverse 300 kilometres along the coast of Hudson Bay, from Fort Severn, Ont., to York Factory, a remote national historic site in Manitoba, about 250 km southeast of Churchill.
