Weirdly, this bill would end up hurting Sikh men the most. And they are probably one of the most well integrated communities in Canada.

Sikhs are some of my favorite fellow Canadians. The Sikh community puts a lot of effort into really integrating into the Canadian culture and it shows.
It really helps that Sikhism is a relatively young religion that didn't ask that much of individuals. We're just "below the fold" enough to not have too many prejudices attached to us. Even the keeping hair / turban stuff isn't really required unless you want to.

Come to think of it, that's probably true of most Hindus too. I think it's just the Abrahamic religions that have too deep a history of conflicts within the western world.
