The province's Bill 62 was passed by the Quebec provincial government on Oct. 18. It says that people who work for the government in certain jobs must have their face uncovered. It also requires people who are using government services -- for instance, riding a bus or using a library -- must do so with their face uncovered.
It also bans public workers, like doctors and teachers, from covering their face while they are working.
