The following article from global news is a bad representation of multiculturalism in Canada. A muslim teenager is harassed on the local skytrain. The man allegedly hurled racially charged obscenities at her, ripped off her hijab and then slapped her in the face. Of all the passengers on the train, Fadel believes she was singled out because of her religion.

This is an example of people being discouraged for portraying their religion because in this specific article the person now feels unsafe and targeted because of her religion.
