CP NewsAlert: Quebec adopts law making oath to King optional for elected members.

By The Canadian Press on December 9, 2022.

Quebec’s legislature has passed a law putting an end to the requirement that members swear an oath to the King.

The Coalition Avenir Québec government had tabled a bill on Tuesday making the oath to the monarch optional after three members of the opposition Parti Québécois refused to swear the oath and were barred from sitting.

More coming.
