A muslimah who lives in an Islamic country (for example, Saudi Arabia) is forced to follow the Islamic dress code, as well as other aspects of Islamic law.
A muslimah who lives in Canada can follow the Islamic dress code, and other aspects of Islamic law, if she wants. But she also has the option of ignoring parts or all of the Islamic dress code.
Since a muslimah who lives in Canada has choices that a muslimah is Saudi Arabia doesn't have, we are forced to conclude that a muslimah who lives in Canada has more freedom than a muslimah who lives in Saudi Arabia.
