I would think that 70% of Canadians have a different reason for supporting Bill 62 concept in ALL Canadian provinces. The reasons are NOT anti-Islam NOR discrimination against women. The majority of Canadians are fearful of ANY masked individuals in their proximity. This is a decades-old problem which relates to "the bad guys always wear masks".  Radicalized extremists, terrorists, criminals, and other low-life individuals typically wear a mask to conceal their identity. Law-abiding Canadians typically try to judge a stranger's intent by "reading" the stranger's facial expression.  We fear a masked stranger, yet we support all religious beliefs and the right for women to choose their own clothing as long as it complies with the laws. In this particular case, Quebec has erred simply  in the wording of Bill 62's purpose. It should have simply stated that ALL people must remove face coverings (as surgical masks, scarves, balaclavas, facial masks, and the like) to be properly identified.
