if this article would report the truth. But as I said previously all the French reports of this and all the English reports of this suggest very different things. If in fact as it is said in the article you link, the government visited the room and broke all accomodations, that would be outrageous and I would be on your side. If they had succeeded in accomodating her and the government broke it all, it's clearly the government fault, not hers, and she should be allowed back into school instantly.
But as I originately said, what I'm a little pissed about is that the English media only reports what they wanna report. I'm gonna link you here the French version from the French counterpart of CBC that they "translated".

If you can get a french friend to translate it for you, he would tell you exactly what I originately posted : that she was expelled after asking other men to be move away from the class and after she decided refusing lifting her niqab just for the teacher. Then AFTER the school went to government.
I know 9 out of 10 english media you will find will tell the same thing as the CBC and that's why I took the time to translate the story that really happened that Toronto's media doesn't want to report because... well because they don't like us.
And seriously, which school, let alone a cegep which is a sort of transition between high school and university, is being visited by government representatives? I don't know for you but I have never seen it.
