The contentious issue obliging Muslim women to cover their faces is unending. However, there seems a logical way to resolve this enigmatic dilemma.
Canada has soldiers dying in Afghanistan, partly to allow women to have a choice. Must they wear the hijab, niqab, burqa, etc., if they choose not to? According to the Taliban - yes! Female newcomers to Canada should at least have a similar free choice not to wear these garments. May we assume, therefore, that parents and mullahs will honour that choice? The 2007 death of a 16-year-old Ontario girl (confessed to by her father) for ignoring this demand is not a part of Canadian culture. Nor should it ever become such.
TRIAL SET in PARVEZ KILLING
If immigrant women to Canada do not have this choice, they may as well remain where they are now!
