Don’t say “God”: New rule for Canada military chaplains

In brief

Canadian military chaplains are now prohibited from using the word God, according to a report by Aleteia.

This new rule applies to members of the military throughout Canada. The report notes that this follows a 2019 ban in Quebec province, which prevented public sector employees in authority, such as judges, police officers, teachers, and crown prosecutors, from wearing visible religious symbols like Christian crosses, hijabs, turbans, or yarmulkes.
