Also, how is the niqab thing even an issue. I'm surprised that people are required to take the oath in public rather than just signing a piece of paper.
I mean, I think it's great we have the ceremony and everything but let's be honest, it's just a ceremony and has nothing to do with someone is "qualified" to be canadian.
I don't want to debate about whether niqabs, burkas etc.. should be banned in all public spaces, that's another issue. If we accept them in all other social environments, I don't see how this citizenship oath thing is somehow so sacred that it should be banned there. Totally ridiculous.
