If it's a choice why do the mother's make her 1 year old daughter wear it did her daughter ask for it ?

Not available to everybody means restricting one's own choices; thats a constraint, against liberty and not an honor.\nSick of these apologists.

This is a CBC commercial for Trudeau's Liberals. So, they allow comments here on this story. Other less favorable Liberal stories by the CBC on YouTube, don't allow for a comment section. These migrants come from the U.S. when the economy there is booming...WHY? It makes me wonder if many of these migrants are the worst ones. America is the first choice of most immigrants, what are these migrants running from in the U.S.???

Their choices makes other people insecured, thats the facts

Choosing to wear a burka in an western country u show disrespect for the culture of the country accepted you here..is confirmation that u do not want to integrate in our society..and u want to keep these primitive culture and beliefs alieve ...and please stop complaining of being bullied...you had a choice when you decided to come here...you are bullied because you show no intension of being one of us..because u show weakness in front of the male of family who refuse to understands this is a democratic country..I am a woman and I feel ashamed by u to say u represent women gender...I feel insulted and all I can do is to ignore you and your existence...

I'm suppose to feel bad for him???? He chose to do what he did. He should take accountability and responsibility for his choices. He chooses to stay ILLEGAL. No man is above the law and if you are not under the jurisdiction of that law because you are illegal, I am sorry, you get caught, you get deported.

Is it really a choice to wear it or not though? The lady towards the end makes me doubt it.

Im a muslim and believe we need to adapt to todays standards sure i believe drinking alcohol is bad however that doesn't mean people cant do it its there choice

The girls are programmed from childhood. It is not a choice.

I wonder where all the feminists are when sharia police harass a young woman for her fashion choice? \nOh wait I know they're to busy trying to get Due Process abolished so that women can have men imprisoned without a trial.

The well known hatred of the muslim for the western society is simply reflected back at them. With such hate and non integration, ask yourself, why are they here? They deserve nothing more than negative sentiment and more by their actions.  Their theology fails four major tests that any religion should fulfill. 1. Adherence to a religion must be a personal choice. 2. No religion should demand that those who leave it should be killed, this makes it a totalitarian ideology rather than a religion. 3. No religion should ever mandate the subjugation of those who do not belong to it. 4. A religion should be in accord with basic human rights.

Liberals aren’t helping the issue. They are sabotaging the efforts of moderate Muslims to help women attain equality by promoting the ludicrous notion that somehow nikab and hijab is feminist. If a white Canadian woman was to join a cult where she was being exploited , they’d all rally to get her out of it instead of saying “well it’s her choice”. As a woman who once wore it, it isn’t just a garment. It is not a bloody hoodie. It makes you second class simply by virtue of wearing it. It ghettoises those women. They will find it harder to integrate even WITHIN their own community, ie with other more liberal Muslims. They’ll only hang out with each other, and their beliefs become more fundamentalist. It is anything but freeing. It’s a cage.\nFarzana is a hero.

Trudeau needs to get out with them. You are scary. Your choice. Big B S.

You’s look like mommies walking down the street your in Canada wake up you know it’s not your choice your free now

I feel sorry for the children. Here we.have an illegal individual who decided to sneak into the country and start a family. The poor children have no choice and now the family is all broken up\n It was his fault. He should have thought about the consequences.

Good job muslims in london all mankind should embrace islam they have no choice ?

Your talking about freedom of choice but if you get your way Sharia law will remove freedom. Freedom of choice or Sharia? What schitso thinking.

He said it himself; everything was uncertain. This outcome is a result of that reality. Where does this attitude of guaranteed success in all endeavours come from? Everything about this is rooted in entitlement, rash actions and poor planning. He made a poor choice and now the bill is due.

You never made that choice for yourself ..You were provoked and brainwashed in this religion..simple fact

illegal immigrant, and trying to be a refugee. Im confused why he is confused. People need to do more wiki reading before taking big risks with their family to break immigration law. And say what you want about us western nations, we are very lax when it comes to enforcing all of these laws becaue it is so easy for illegal immigrants to hide among legal immigrants or US citizens of shared culture or ethnicity. I have no personal problem with these people, I understand why immigrants make these choices, but that doesn't change the law and the Governments job to enforce it. God bless.

The women have been brain washed to make them believe it’s their choice

2 slove this problem just ban Islam in the western world if they really what 2 live in the western world then they have a choice

I don't know what Sharia Law/ Islam is all about to hate it that much. We have Muslims in our country. At least around 20% of the population. Maybe more than Australia... but there are as many different interpretation of Islam and Sharia Law, as the Bible and Christian denominations. What you probably have is the Radical Extremist type.... The type that doesn't accept differences in culture and the population they are in. They are the minority who wants to have the majority rule... We also have problems with Radical Islam and majority of the Muslim population in my country does not accept them that much. There are certainly discrimination against Muslim, but not as much as most western countries does. My advise is to not to generalize Muslims as one type of people. There are people in that community that does not believe in extremist interpretation of the law. Second, deport or watch radical extremist as they are dangerous to any multicultural society, like the white supremacist and Neo- Nazis in the US. Some of them are citizens. Deporting your own citizen to a different country is far-fetched. Third, accept them as part of a sub- culture, having their own ways within their group, yet under the laws of the nation they are living. The way they dress, polygamy, and women's rights are just some issues that Westerners usually cringe about. But there are other religions who practice these as well. Lastly, stop hating each other because your hate will empower extremism. \nReligion is either you are born with it until you are old/ mature enough to choose or an independent choice.

Next time I go on a racist rant, I’ll be sure to insert a few choice comments on how much What’s Trending sucks.

Maybe some women don't really want to be free? Making choices in real life is too much brain power anyways.

It's their choice, yes their choice is in Saudi Arabia not in Canada or us

It's individuals choice if they want to come back but no point comparing. Canada is diverse because majority immigrants are from India.

If she chooses not to cover that's her choice. But don't go hating like Harper did cause was a Racist and hater like Trump is today.

This was a choice that I made myself, it don’t matter that non Muslims don’t agree with it and find it spooky , this is what they think and do not care what non Muslims think, selfish women.

Niquab is a choice made by her husband, and will find any reasons to cover his forcibly to get coverage, but he would not wear such clothing in the hot summer, rain, and winter. Have fun moronic idiots and go back to where you come from.

They couldn't start a race war here been trying for at least five years but most families have at least one relative of a different race the gov answer flood us and leave us no choice but to fight. Your not cool at all you are a modern slaves

She is lying, it's not by her choice, I'd like to see what would happen if she chose not to cover. Hahaha she would be a victim of acid attack.

The fact that the women that think that they have a choice in wearing the niqab is sad. They don't. They've been brainwashed and there is a lot of social pressure from the Muslim community to wear them. \nPrior to the 80's, women actually had rights in the Middle East. After the US signed a deal with the Wahhabist leaders in Saudi Arabia creating Petrocurrency, the Middle East was doomed. \nWe all need to get away from oil so we can remove power from the rich Wahhabists in Saudi Arabia. They are the ones that are really pushing the Conservative version of Islam.

The fact that feminism supports this is repulsive. The fact that a person has to fear death for speaking about it is proof that it is not about choice at all. That alone PROVES it.

Just to let everyone know I actually wish fox was fake news like CNN this is nothing new this has been going on for a few years now I live in toronto Canada and it's pretty much next to impossible to get a room in a motel just last week I had family fly in from bc for my cousins wedding and they could not get a room so they had no choice but to stay with family everywhere they went to try to get a hotel was jammed packed to the gills with migrants and my new next door neighbor told me that he came here and claimed asylum and they instantly put him on government social assistance aka welfare and he said his next move is to get a doctor to fill out paperwork saying he can't work and get disability check all he said he has to do is give the doctor 100$

When the border patrol or ICE catch illegals, they should give them the choice of being deported to Canada.

Advertise all illegals, democrats, swamp FBI, CIA & DOJ, radical whatever and MS13 Welcome to CANADA! Make sure the hotel signs read 5 stars with complimentary Limo service, champagne brunch, unlimited cocktails, fully stocked room refrigerators, room service with choice of daily deep tissue or Swedish massage a chocolate bar tucked over the blanket. I'M IN. MAGA

Okay, as a Canadian, I've been watching all sides of the stories. All of your points of view are heard, and particularly the past day's coverage rings true, in some senses. In others, not. \nAlways, people say this, and people say that, and the truth is somewhere in the middle.\nHowever, please explore this topic before digging down and making up your minds based on this interview. \nPlease do a smidgen of more research, hear more than this opinion and do a lot more listening? \nI know you all are going through a very difficult time.\nAs a Canadian, most of us are very comfortable with what our government is doing. \nWe are not afraid of 'others'. \nWe are not afraid of Americans.\nBut this reporting choice, and your choice to jump on, and believe this interview as true.....\nThat does give me pause for concern.

What a healthy meal to feed to your children. Hot dog kabobs, the healthy protein choice! lol

All the women saying they chose to wear the Niqab and hijab got the same choice a well trained dog bringing its collar to its master to be collared! They very well trained from childhood! At times adults are broken easily with guilt conscience too.

Everyone has a choice.....

Women should have the choice to wear hijab, but we still have the right to criticize the idea behind it.

Poor women, they think hiding their face/ body is, power for women, while they live in a free western country. What about those poor women in Saudi Arabia, they don't have a choice.

she says it is her choice. let her change it on her own will, she will know what her islam is from her own people. women is placed high. so called privilege here, no place in heaven. that is only for men with other women that too many, along with wine. special privilege by Allah. not for kafur. millions believe it until death and get lost under the soil for ever not to come back to tell the tale.nobody cares after that. that's fate, but dreams continue. poor brain dead lot.

There's nothing to be scared about. Muslims are peaceful. Whether you choose to believe that or not is your choice. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but don't judge someone based on their religion. I'm Muslim and know other Muslims and not one of them would harm even an insect let alone a human being. We are all humans, so have some humanity and show love.

Is not their choice. They are obliged to do so . Is the very transparent truth . Isn't it ?

Interesting that the would-be Canadians in this video did not appear to speak English or French with any level of fluency. If you were planning to leave your home and establish yourself in Central or South America, you'd learn Spanish or Portuguese to an intermediate level so that you could communicate/understand clearly, land and advance in a job, have the ability to navigate your geography and make informed decisions. (Are you comfortable that this gentleman as depicted in this video would accurately understand his choices should he be allowed to cast a ballot in the next election?). Several of my ESL scholars have learned enough to function very nicely on their own in less than 2 years. It is not an impossible task, but it is part of the deal with immigration and it is essential.

Oh look you made the choices, you have to suffer.

It sounds nice to say “Everyone has a human right to go where they want.” It isn’t so simple. If people come illegally, they affect everyone in the new country and all the people coming legally. If you detain them together with their family, you are incarcerating children, if you take the parents only you break up families. If you send them back with no detention and no appeals, you miss cases with legitimate grounds to have an exception. Bottom line, someone is on the losing end no matter which policies you use—it’s a fiction to say there is a win-win-win. So let’s make hard choices.
