What should niqab be treated differently from those situations?

I won't pile on, but when I go to a social event that requires a dress code, part of the appeal for me is that I have an excuse to clean up and mingle in that type of atmosphere (although I can really only do it in small doses).
No one goes to a citizenship ceremony for the formal attire. They should be free to express who they are as Canada prides itself on freedom.
