tolerance for that? No (none / 0)
the apologists would have a point if it was only about dresscode. but let's not fool ourselves. the niqab isn't simply a dress.
it's a(-n adopted) religious item, a sociopolitical statement.

an what is the statement exactly? i'm breaking no secret: women are inequal to men, they must be the modest ones, they're not righteous people as long as they are uncovered. they need to cover themselves as not to be insulted/attacked [acc. to qu'ran: 24.31 and 33:59]

my understanding of a free and equal society is diametrically opposed to that doctrine.

It wasn't about the niqab!!! (none / 0)
Nobody cared about that. In Canada people are free to make every religious or sociopolitical s5tatement they seem fit. It seems this isn't even restricted to schools.

My understanding of a free and equal society is that I'm also free to consider myself inequal, to forfit rightsand to be modest.

No sir, You don't care, please be honest, a lot of people don't want religion in public affairs. The development, implementation and study of branches of government policy. The pursuit of the public good by enhancing civil society, ensuring a well-run, fair, and effective public services. I'm sorry sir but do be fool by the woman, the only thing she promote is isalmic propaganda

So, what? Just let her. If she was in my class she wouldn't have convinced me of anything. A civil society should be strong enough to be able to live with people promoting Islam, fascism, Satanism...
Her rights end only where mine begin. If she makes it impossible to teach in this course, she can't attend the course anymore. Until this oint she can wear (and believe) whatever she wants.
