March 24, 2026 | Pearl Eliadis joins Global News to comment on the Supreme Court of Canada's hearing of a legal challenge to Qu茅bec's secularism law, Bill 21. She speaks to the limits of judicial review of the Notwithstanding Clause and notes that courts may be constrained by constitutional language, even as concerns grow over its broad application.

Eliadis also points to how secularism has been applied in Qu茅bec, warning that it risks being used against religious minorities rather than serving as a neutral principle. This case, according to Eliadis, raises broader questions about the balance between provincial autonomy and fundamental rights in Canada.
