Anti-abortion event canceled | Quebec will not comply with a formal notice

(Quebec) The Legault government will not comply with the formal notice from the Harvest Ministries International group, which demands that its contract with the Quebec City Convention Center be reinstated.


The “Fire, Faith and Freedom Rally” event, which was to be held from June 23 to July 2, was canceled last Friday by the Minister of Tourism, Caroline Proulx. According to her, this is an anti-abortion event.

Ulcerated, the group has put the Government of Quebec and the Convention Center on notice, and given him until noon Thursday to restore his contract, otherwise he will initiate legal proceedings.

Thursday morning, M.me Proulx refused to comment on the case on the pretext that it is “judicialized”.

Her colleague, Minister responsible for the Status of Women Martine Biron, indicated that the government is maintaining its decision to ban the event.

“We were clear, we are not dithering on this issue, we made our decision, then we will stick to it,” she said.
