Canadian Lawyer covered the Supreme Court of Canada hearing on
the constitutional challenge to Quebec's Bill 21, featuring Sahar
Talebi for her advocacy on behalf of the Canadian Council of
Muslim Women (CCMW). In the article, Sahar described Muslim women
as "the face of Bill 21's exclusion" and stated that
a judicial declaration recognizing Charter infringements is
essential to acknowledging and validating the harm Muslim women
experience and continue to experience. She emphasized that such
declarations are critical for accountability and for ensuring that
the rights of marginalized groups are not rendered invisible by the
Constitution.
Paul-Erik Veel, Sahar
Talebi, and Mina Alam represented the Canadian Council of
Muslim Women (CCMW) as an intervener in this important matter.
