I assume that under this law if someone wore a swastika on a chain around their neck, that would be ok since its not a religious symbol?

In theory and suppossedly chains around their neck for example as long as the religious symbol was pretty much hidden would be ok.
However a lot of religious symbols are and have to be overt like an article of faith. So and forgive me if I'm wrong, someone who has to display a kirpan isn't going to be able to hide it. Or someone who wears a hijab or Turban can't just take them off.
If this gets passed which hopefully it won't because it will die with the PQ, you're probably going to see a whole new inspectorate opened up with hundreds of spies crawling through federal offices and hospitals.
You'll also see amateur anti religious zealots launching complaints at everything they see.
