No different at all. Rights MUST apply equally to all citizens. Anything else is discrimination.

I don't make the law sorry.

If it were up to me it wouldn't matter if the person were dressed in a clown suit as long as they were civil.

I tend to agree with you. But the law must apply to everyone equally. No group should have special rights.
Except taxpayers should have more right than non taxpayers to decide how government money is spent.

Great.

Now we have two Cons that admit they disagree with Harper.


This is a productive thread eh Cannuck?

So you do believe in equality then.

I believe in equal opportunity, but I also believe in pragmatism.

In this case, it is infinitely more pragmatic to give a women the opportunity to choose then it is to take that freedom away.

And if some fool wants to wear a KKK robe, then let him as well. The freedom to talk about it will work its own magic.

No need for a leftist ban.

But only some people are being given that opportunity. Thus destroying equality.

Good stuff coming up.


Muslim in Canada

CityNews will be exploring the Muslim experience in Canada in an in-depth investigation in a two-hour newscast starting at 5 p.m. on Thursday.

Reporter Avery Haines explores several issues.

She speaks to Muslim women who discuss what it’s like to wear a niqab.

One woman tells her that it hasn’t been this scary to practise Islam in Canada since 9/11 and blames Prime Minister Stephen Harper.

Haines also explores the social media lampooning of Harper’s claim that the niqab is anti-Muslim.

Another woman says that her views are putting her in danger. Why? Because she says Muslim women are being sold a lie that the niqab brings them closer to God.

Muslim in Canada: Part 1: Muslim experience in Canada

The stories will be aired and published online on Thursday. Tune in to CityNews to watch the full stories from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.

Why is it with leftards, that when it suits their argument, the Niqab is a religious garment, and other times it is just a custom......?

they didn't even KNOW what a niqab was. had to be explained to them. even then, derp.

Well, technically CM hasn't said that he disagrees with Harper, just that he disagrees with me who disagrees with Trudeau. Since he seems to agree with Trudeau, one could easily assume he disagrees with Harper as those two never agree on anything. It's really hard to tell for sure though because capt is nothing more than a troll and they flip flops so much it's often hard to figure out what they actually believe, if anything.

the subject and t=your support or non support thereof.

Oh Jesus!!!! You couldn't stay away from the meth.

sad retort bud... Mind you, no surprise there

There you go getting all emotional again. Whether it's happy or sad has nothing to do with the truth. Your refusal to acknowledge that you agree with me is a clear indication that you agree with Trudeau. That would explain why you keep bringing him up.
