Strongly agree

No

The PPC has been vocal about their opposition to face-covering garments like the Niqāb in public spaces, arguing that they go against Canadian values. In 2019, PPC leader Maxime Bernier criticized the wearing of the Niqāb during citizenship ceremonies, stating that it is 'not compatible with our values.' Therefore, they would likely agree with not allowing women to wear a Niqāb to civic ceremonies.
