My preference is a form of secularism meaning all govt employees refrain from showing any religious identity. This means, for example, an elementary school teacher cannot wear a burqa in her classroom. This is also in-line with the idea of separation of church and state. Next. I would say it is unacceptable to have one's face completely covered in public; so I would also be in favour of a burqa and niqab ban, such as in many European, and even in some majority-Muslim, countries. This is also recognizing, I think, the fact that the burqa is basically the dress-code of Islamic fundamentalists and hard-line Islamists.
