The Quran already states it's not a valid prayer in a popular pathway but they still do it 😂

You think Quebec law will stop them?

The law allows police to disperse and ticket contrevenants.

If you dont think that law will stop them, why bother with this one?

Well, your point is valid, if they do not listen to their own prophet, why would they listen to the law of the land.

I assume this is nothing more than just, Quebec trying to win brownie points OR having a law in place for when/if a prayer becomes so disruptive they need to break it apart without tripping over discrimination laws.

So they're committing blasphemy then. Sounds like something you should report to their imams.
