So given the niqab is banned now all these threats are eliminated and all the problems of the West will be solved. Today Western nations face many problems like terrorism, uncontrolled immigration, rising developing countries etc, Societies make mistakes when they feel threatened. Hitler, Mussolini or Stalin were not Muslim. The Western values many Westerners are proud of and many non Westerners love are the liberal democratic ideals developed after WW II by liberal and humanist philosophers. In a world in which developing nations like China, India, Russia, Brazil, Turkey etc can increasingly compete with the West in many areas, the West has no appeal without these ideals. No Muslims invading Canada and cutting your head is not a realistic scenario but accelaration of the decline of the West in the hands of leaders like Trump or far right leaders of Europe is very realistic. And Canada is not immune to what is happening in the rest of the the West.
