Hmm... you know... *technically*... the following could count as hijab:
We need a Montreal designer to come up with a version made with seal fur.
Anyway... I think they're being picking on too much. If they want to wear hijab then whatever... but full burka walking into a bank?!? Come on!

Re: French burqa ban proposal riles Muslims
There is a huge difference between the rituals and acts of faith in any religion. The
covered face is not part of the religion it is part of the traditional trappings. The
people of the west are getting angry that our customs are being devalued to
accommodate traditions of everywhere else. I like the French move. In Canada there
are senior Muslim leaders who say the face garb should go.
If one is coming to Canada they should go by the customs here. That is not to say they should not celebrate their customs at official events and so on, but the time
has come to go from multicultural to melting pot.
