Quebecs proposed new constitution, introduced two months ago, has sparked significant controversy due to concerns it could undermine human rights, stifle dissent, and unnecessarily reignite debates surrounding abortion. The bill, which includes a provision preventing publicly funded organizations from challenging laws deemed to protect Quebecs fundamental characteristics, has been criticized as potentially blocking legal challenges and fostering a climate of institutional self-censorship. Despite widespread opposition, the governing Coalition Avenir Québec holds a majority and does not require cooperation from other parties to pass the law.
