(Canadian Press) Amrit Kaur’s turban never leaves her body, no matter what she does.
The 27-year-old student teacher from Vaudreuil-Dorion, west of Montreal, has even figured out a way to shower with it on, by tying it around her waist while she washes her hair.
Kaur, a Sikh woman working on a Bachelor of Education degree, is one of many Quebecers who could see her career choices limited if the province’s newly elected government goes through with a promise to ban certain state employees from wearing religious symbols in the workplace.
She is among those asking premier-designate Francois Legault to reconsider a proposal that would apply to state employees who occupy positions of authority, including judges, police officers and teachers.
