Toronto Police has opened its doors wide to all applicants in an effort to be more representative of the communities it is serving. In this ongoing effort, it is also seeking to enlist its first hijab-wearing officer, Superintendent Cyril Fernandes had told Focus this summer.What exactly is the message here? More to the point... would a non-hijab wearing Muslim woman get the same consideration?
"Sorry Aisha... we're not really concerned how you feel about being a Police Officer... we just need someone who really looks the part."I can't wait to see the musical promo for their "Officer Hip-Hop" initiative.
