Samira Laouni

activist Canada

Samira Laouni is a professor and activist who moved to Quebec from France in 1998 to escape racism and provide a better life for her daughter. Over the years, she has become increasingly vocal about the challenges faced by religious minorities in the province, particularly following the implementation of laws such as Bill 21, which restricts the wearing of religious symbols by public employees. As she contemplates leaving Quebec due to the hostile climate towards religious and linguistic minorities, Laouni reflects on the emotional toll of feeling unwelcome in a place she once considered home.
