Wearing a visible religious symbol while working for the public sector

This has nothing to do with conservatism, it's about secularism, go to Turkey you'll see the same thing, France too, it does not come from conservatives.

Secularism isn't about hiding religion, it's about making it not matter.

And you'll recall that the laws in Quebec around this carved out exemptions for certain religious and cultural signifiers.

That isn't secularism.

In my country we allow everyone to wear whatever religious symbols, clothes, knives in public service workplaces since those things don't affect how they do their work, though telling them they may not have those things will push them out of the jobs, or make them upset and less productive if they don't leave

I see bans on religious symbols in the workplace as an attempt to reduce the number of people who value those symbols in those workplaces

No, you see, it either comes from a liberal or a conservative.

There is no in-between, outliers, or overlap.
