This is ridiculous, and it is NOT religious freedom.

Everyone has the right to practice their own religion. If you have to wear and turban and grow a beard, then perhaps that disqualifies you for one position or another. That’s life. When you come over to America (or Canada), you have to conform to the practices of that country.

Changing the years-old rules to accommodate a certain religion is not religious freedom - it is using our tolerance to bully. Stay in your own land if you don’t like our customs, traditions and rules.

Fully agree. This is a very slippery slope.
