For this law specifically, it didn't when it was first proposed. I was living in Montreal at the time and there were protests. The provincial government said the cross is "not a religious symbol" or something similar.

So that's a lie...

"I was living in Montreal at the time"

Buddy, I've been living in Quebec longer than the average user on here has been alive and politics is one of my main interests in life.

They didn't want to remove the cross in the national assembly at first but they never considered the cross to not be a religious sign for the public servants mentioned in the law's text.
