This Woman Just Took The Citizenship Oath In A Niqab And The Sky Didn't Fall

    Zunera Ishaq is now a Canadian citizen.

    This is Zunera Ishaq, a Muslim woman in Ontario who took on the government for her right to wear a niqab while taking the citizenship oath.

    Her battle has become a focal point of an election in which the Conservatives have turned niqabs into a wedge issue.

    But Ishaq's victory came to a head today when she was sworn in as a Canadian citizen, niqab firmly in place.

    Zunera Ishaq, the woman at the centre of the niqab controversy, has just become a Canadian citizen.
