Canada bans burqa at citizenship swearing in

MONTREAL (AP) — Canada's immigration minister says new Canadians will have to remove any face-coverings, such as the Islamic niqab or burqa, while they take the oath of citizenship.
Immigration Minister Jason Kenney said Monday he's received complaints from lawmakers and citizenship judges who say it's difficult to ensure that individuals whose faces are covered are actually reciting the oath.
Kenney says it's also a question of values. He says new Canadians should be taking the oath in view of their fellow citizens.
The location of the announcement was not without symbolism. The French-speaking province of Quebec has had debates over how much should Canada bend to accommodate newcomers.

Toivottavasti Kanadassa kuunnellaan tätä ryhmää:

Thankfully, this important Muslim group, the Muslim Canadian Congress, is not possessed of the disease of "moral relativity" and understands exactly what the burqa, niqab, chador, etc., represent: The oppression of women.

"The burka has absolutely no place in Canada," said Farzana Hassan, of the Muslim Canadian Congress. "In Canada we recognize the equality of men and women. We want to recognize gender equality as an absolute. The burka marginalizes women."

She said many women who cover their face in public are being forced to by their husbands and family. As a result, she argued, these women are denied opportunities and cannot live freely as other women in this society.

The justification of this depraved practice for any reason other than protecting the skin in sandstorms is disgusting and appalling.

Let the shrill cries of "Islamophobe," "racist" and "Zionist" begin. They will not cover up the voices of millions of Muslim women worldwide who would love to have the opportunity to live real and free lives.

Itse koen burkhat ja nimqhat kaksi piippuisena asiana. Toisaalta vaakakupissa painaa yksilön vapaus pukeutua miten haluaa (kuitenkin kulttuurin sen hetkisiä siveysnormistoja kunnioittaen) mutta toisaalta taas ko. tapauksessa heidät on joko pakotettu tai aivopesty pitämään ko. vaatetta. En nyt oikein tiedä tuosta Kanadan tapauksesta onko se oikeasti vapauden kunnioittamista vai ei - harmaalla vesillä seilataan aina kun kielletään noita päähineitä. Toisaalta jos ko. uskonto pakottaisi KAIKKI ihmiset vehkeeseen katsomatta pitämään sitä, silloin se olisi tasa-arvoista ja hyväksyttävää tai sitten taas toisaalta jotain tapeltavaa ja vastustettavaa koska pakotus.
