This is an extension of the existing law 101 that already governed language in the province, leading to the provincial language police, OQLF. This is not the same as bill 21, which regulates religious symbology and usage, although it’s in the same spirit. The Nothwithstanding clause of the Canadian and Quebec charters of rights and freedoms is being used in advance when passing these laws.
Note to those interested in working in Quebec: they control the initial step of the Canadian immigration process for provincial residents. So you better be comfortable with French and able/willing to pick it up.
Edit: national post is a conservative newspaper here in Canada.
