What Do Canadians Wear? The Hijab.

Normalizing the Hijab

This story features Ginella Massa, Canada’s first news anchor to wear a Hijab. Massa’s experience is a testament to both the normalcy of Canadian women wearing the Hijab in public, and to the significance of this milestone. Massa believes that her new visibility will provide her with the opportunity to be a role model for young girls who wear the Hijab and want to pursue careers in journalism or otherwise. Massa thinks its time that Toronto’s news reflect Toronto’s inhabitants!
