Oh where to begin. First, Wente repeats the big lie about face coverings being an Islamic religious requirement. They are not. They are archaic misogynistic practices hiding under the guise of religion.
Second, Wente goes on to quote polls showing wide support for the ban. The reason why we have a constitution with a Charter of Rights and Freedoms is so the tyranny of the majority doesn’t encourage the government to say, tell us how to dress.
Third Wente references European counters with bans as if they are pillars of tolerance. Germany, need I say more and Norway, which until 1977 forcibly sterilized member of its Romani minority.
She is right about one thing. Laws like this encourage retrenchment by some. 
But I would like to see some statistics on what percentage of daughters, whose immigrant mothers wear the face covering, end up wearing the face covering as well. I bet the percentage is near zero.
