Veils Banned During Citizenship Oath

This action makes sense.
Muslim females will now be required by law to remove their face coverings in front of a judge while taking an oath of Canadian citizenship. They can be refused Canadian citizenship if they don’t.

Minister of Citizenship and Immigration Jason Kenney said he has received complaints from lawmakers and citizenship judges who say it is difficult to ensure that individuals whose faces are covered are actually reciting the oath.
Like I mentioned, it makes sense.
