There is another aspect to this discussion that few talk about and that is that people are concerned with burkas because of its connection to the radical ideology of Islam as taught in Islamic religious schools or Madrassas run by the Wahhabis, the sect of Islam supported by the Saudis and the guardians of Mecca. It is this ideology that requires that women wear Burkas. Hillary Clinton recognized this as she said in her speech after the Orlando massacres;

"For starters, it is long past time for the Saudis, the Qataris and the Kuwaitis and others to stop their citizens from funding extremist organizations. And they should stop supporting radical schools and mosques around the world that have set too many young people on a path towards extremism"

Accordingly, another reason Canadians may be against Burkas is the link of Burkas to the radical ideology of the Wahhabis, which according to a Wahhabi Imam, is similar to that of ISIS, per a recent article.
