Quebec passes law forcing Muslim women from wearing niqab while using public services

Apparently this applies to staff at the Provincial and municipal level providing public services (including public transit), as well as those receiving the services.

The bill requires citizens giving and receiving public services to do so with their faces uncovered, and is seen as "... necessary for "communication reasons, identification reasons and security reasons."

I am sure they have their reasons for it, such as preventing someone from dressing up in one and committing crimes. They couldn't wear one and enter a bank or savings and loan business here where I live due to bank robbers using a variety of things to cover their faces. The last bank robber here wore an old man face mask, he was a high school student.
