Marissa Semkiw reports for TheRebel.media: In an unanimous decision (shocker!), the Supreme Court of Canada ruled that the municipal council in the town of Saguenay, Quebec, can no longer open its meetings with a prayer. But is this about promoting multiculturalism, or fostering a monoculture of secularism? Peter Shurman, former PC MPP for Thornhill, Ontario became acquainted with a similar issue when former Premier Dalton McGuinty thought eliminating The Lord's Prayer from the Legislature was a good idea. He told me that as a Jewish man, he was never offended by the recitation of that Christian prayer, and explained why by way of his own personal history.
