The Correctional Services of Canada is designing ONE special uniform to make sure this muslim woman does not touch the skin of the male prisoners she is going to be working with. How dumb is this, how PC and libtardedly progressive is this moronic move by the CSC? I have no problem with a woman wanting to be in this field but I really think women should be relegated to being with only female prisoners and men should be relegated to working with male prisoners. Call me a sexist, male pig and lets get that out of the way, OK? She is playing the cards that we have let muslims play so well here in the West. If anything goes wrong or one wrong word is said to her she will be screaming discrimination and islamophobia.
What will happen when she DOES come in contact with a male prisoner? It will happen, protective uniform or not. Then she will sue Canada for failing to 'protect' her and you can bet every islamic organization will be tripping over each other to assist this 'trail blazer' in her mission to pave the way for more islamic infiltration, to wage stealth jihad upon the fools of the West who allow this to happen in the first place. There is nothing positive that can come out of this.
"Wherever possible, you want to see diversity in the workplace and to have a broad range of perspectives represented," he said. "Within the correctional service, that can often be an important part of rehabilitation when you have different people working in prison who will understand different cultural and religious backgrounds. That absolutely can provide great benefit in dealing with different situations that might arise within those prison walls."
Holland said the employee is blazing a new path, and hopes employees in all facets of the public service understand the benefits of a diverse work force.

Criticism, applause for prison guard accommodations
By Kathleen Harris
OTTAWA — Correctional Service of Canada is drawing both criticism and applause for taking steps to accommodate the religious and cultural practices of a female Muslim prison guard — the first ever hired in the country.
The Muslim Canadian Congress called it “apologist” and “politically correct” that CSC is designing a special hijab for wearing inside the men’s federal penitentiary where the recruit will be posted after completing a nine-week training program. MCC vice-president Salma Siddiqui declared it "nonsense" that the employee is permitted to wear long sleeves and gloves to avoid skin-to-skin contact with males and worked out prayer times with the employer.
Siddiqui insisted religious faith should not be a factor on-the-job for any employee who chooses the profession of a correctional officer.
"I don't think there should be any emphasis on Muslim or not," she told QMI Agency. "They are being Canadian and politically correct. We do not have to live with that guilt."
The recruit will wear a hijab designed to come off easily if grabbed by an inmate to gain physical control. Siddiqui said there is no religious requirement to cover one's head - that it is the "uniform" of the Muslim brotherhood and international Islamist movement - and worries it may fuel rising concerns about the "penetration" of Islamist ideology into society.
But Liberal MP Mark Holland sees no problem making certain allowances to accommodate cultural and religious practices as long as institutional security and quality of work are not compromised.
"Wherever possible, you want to see diversity in the workplace and to have a broad range of perspectives represented," he said. "Within the correctional service, that can often be an important part of rehabilitation when you have different people working in prison who will understand different cultural and religious backgrounds. That absolutely can provide great benefit in dealing with different situations that might arise within those prison walls."
Holland said the employee is blazing a new path, and hopes employees in all facets of the public service understand the benefits of a diverse work force.
Nermine Barbouch, executive director of the Canadian Muslim Forum, called the employee "courageous" to accept the job of a correctional officer.
"If both sides are OK and they have reached an agreement, there should not be a problem. She is capable of doing what any other person is doing," she said. "I don't like to look at it as reasonable accommodation or any other accommodation."
CSC formed a working group to figure out ways to ensure the employee's religious and cultural needs were accommodated within the parameters of the overarching requirements for safety and security of institution, staff and inmates, said national spokesman Graham Andrews.
In past, CSC has worked with Sikh employees to develop special turbans suitable for the prison setting. Special allowances have also been made to wear replica kirpans.

So basically, you are upset by prison guard fashion in Canada?
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police redesigned their uniform to accommodate a Sikh. People ranted, like you, about "tradition". Now it's just one for the history books. The sky hasn't fallen.
My advice: Let us create our society and you create your own.
This is about the spread of islam
and sharia law. Sikhs are not out
for global domination and wanting
to establish a global caliphate.
Sikhs are generally not into
killing, beheading, torture, the
subjugation and persecution of
women, minorities and followers
of other true religions, of which
islam is not. You obviously do
not see the forest, nor the trees.
This is called infiltration and stealth jihad. want to try one
more time? Study islam, read the
qur'an and ahadith and get back to
us here, OK?
Poor Stephen, it is somewhat ironic that you bring Sikhs, a minority that's being prosecuted and oppressed by islam, as its equivalent, which only shows you are an ignorant relativist that can't tell apart a faucet from a fighter-plane.
It must be reassuring to know your close circle has the same opinions, but that still doesn't turn you into the spokesman for the entire Canadian society, you narrow-minded, generalizing bigot.
