January 23rd, 2025 | In an interview on Let’s Go with Sabrina Marandola on CBC, Pearl Eliadis discussed the Supreme Court of Canada’s decision to hear a legal challenge against Quebec’s Bill 21. Eliadis emphasized the significance of the Court’s move, stating, “It’s the Supreme Court saying that it’s important and an issue of national significance.”
