Listen to the words of this Quebec mayor:

"The city’s mayor, Jean Tremblay, has been an outspoken defender of Quebec’s Roman Catholic roots, and said he has no intention of cancelling the prayer.

According to him, the commission’s ruling is not binding, but rather a recommendation from a certain perspective.

“I know they prefer me to stop, but I won’t do that,” he told CBC News. "For me, God is much more important than the commission. When I arrive on the other side, maybe in 10 years, 20 years, I don’t know, they won’t ask me if I follow the commission, they will ask me if I follow God.

“And I follow God.”

That’s AMAZING!!!, I’m so happy to hear that people are THAT willing to stand up these days.

Two Saguenay residents complained to the commission about the prayer.

I am still amazed how easily governments can be bent… for just 2 people who complained. And why is it that tens of thousands can complain about something that will benefit alll of us and it just falls on deaf ears!!👍 Our Government…By the people for the people!!

Same thing happened when Madeleine Murray Ohare started her protest. I say, good for the Quebec mayor.
