It's not functionally the same. There is no particular functional reason why people remove caps or hats indoors. There is a functional reason why one wants to know who is swearing an oath.
they're not only lifting up the veil for 3 seconds, they're completely removing it for the entire duration of the ceremony.  Akin to Church, in reality...

:lmfao:  Quebec seriously has a law that requires people to remove their hats or caps in class?

Wow.  :huh:

Does the law also mandate which presents can and cannot be given on birthdays?
does everything happening in a classroom needs to be a provincial law?  I don't know, tell me, is there a law that says you must be in class when the bell rings? :roll:

I guess that's why it doesn't bother me - what's the "culture" of Toronto anyway, other than a buncha banks?  :D

People don't come here because of our fine tradition of hat-doffing, but to make money and live their lives without excessive hassle.

Making up unnecessary laws just adds to people's hassles. My notion is: I don't tell them what to wear, and I reserve the right to ignore them if they attempt to tell me what to wear.
well, we already knew Canada has no culture, what we've being a colony&all.  But anyway, this is Federal law.  No veil.  Racist law from racist people I guess.

I'd guess being in class once the bell has rung falls under rules of the school. I'd guess that such a requirement typically doesn't involved depriving people of their rights.

Fausse equivalence.

A l'ecole, elle passe chaque jour devoile.  Ici, elle replace le niqab sur le moment le ceremonie est terminee.  1000 heures > 1 heure.

("Devoile" might not be the right word, although literally it should be.  I am learning your Taliban ways.)
Non, elle entre en classe, elle se dévoile.  Comme on enlève sa casquette ou sa tuque en entrant en classe.  En sortant de la classe, elle remet son voile, comme on remet sa casquette ou sa tuque.

Comme une yarmulke?  Ou une dastar, comme une Sikh porte pour satisfaire aux exigences de sa religion?

Je concede que, peut-etre, Quebec simplement deteste tout religion en generale. :P

Mais pourquoi foutre de chapeaux?

:lol:

I was about to say something like 'being a southerner it is more like a fried cheese eating surrender monkey'.

When I worked at my old, old restaurant, they were served as appetizers.  I used to eat two plates of them for dinner.  J'AI FAIM.

Apparantly, you think that a school dress code should be part of Quebec provincial law.

If you're to speak French then haul your tight boy ass around here so we can practice.


As for the Canadians - let them wallow in their multikulti bullshit until they drown in it...  Which shouldn't be very long at the rate it's happening!
