They are asking whether the prohibition affects Christians wearing cross and fish symbols, or only less popular religions' symbols and styles
The Australian census has a similar question. "None" is not an option, though I don't think it's a mandatory question (though it's hard to get meaningful data out of blank versus a stated "none")
For this law specifically, it didn't when it was first proposed. I was living in Montreal at the time and there were protests. The provincial government said the cross is "not a religious symbol" or something similar.
How about wearing a wedding ring on the left hand 3rd finger? Since the 9th century, that’s primarily been a strongly Christian tradition, therefore arguably a symbol of Christianity?
I think it's only arguably Christian. Loads of atheists follow that tradition and I would consider it culture not religion
