One of the most heartbreaking videos I’ve seen in a while 💔 Watch the woman and the child walking ahead of everyone 😢
Malcolm X He said this much before the 7th October... In the 60s ... His words seem to describe the current situation. Same occupation, same hypocrisy, same media propaganda... Nothing has changed, and resistance to oppression remains legitimate and right. Right ? #Palestine…

Today, on the first anniversary of the horrific crime of terror that killed an innocent Muslim family out for a walk in London, I met with @nccm delegates to explore how Canada can do more to combat Islamophobia.
Our hearts feel heavy as we bid farewell to yet another Ramadan but we are grateful for the opportunity to strengthen our faith and our resolve for the work ahead. To our Muslim sisters and brothers here and around the world, Eid Mubarak! #EidMubarak2022 #EidUlFitr
1/ Islamophobia continues to be a threat in our society. Our incredible community members in Canada have stepped up again and again to advocate for change. Watch this video about community leaders advocating for the Our London Family Act. youtu.be/cpHO8R_Y_W4
We held a #breakingthebias event to highlight hijab-wearing athletes in sport. This event helped us to value and celebrate these athletes by giving them a safe space to have a conversation on allyship so we can continue to grow as a team.
May the blessed month of Ramadan bring peace, joy and spiritual strengthening to all those observing. #RamadanKareem
CMAJ is sorry for the harm caused by the publication yesterday of a letter, the headline of which suggested the hijab is an instrument of oppression of Muslim women. We are listening carefully to the critical feedback we’ve received.

This is outrageous & sadly shouldn’t be surprising given the Ontario legislature’s ban. Student safety and well-being are at serious risk.
We're troubled by @HaltonDSB Guidance Counselor likening a student to a terrorist for wearing a keffiyah-a cultural piece of clothing. We've alerted @HaltonDSB administration. More updates coming soon. #noroomforhate

Umar Zameer is free. Next step: Sue the hell out of Toronto Police. This shouldn’t end here after all that he and his family have been through.
Judge tells Mr Zameer “you’re free to go. My deepest apologies for what you’ve been through.” A court observer makes an utterance behind me upon hearing Molloy’s remarks Margaret Northrup is hugging Lisa Forbes. Sobbing continues from Zameer and his family.
With the verdict in, it's important to understand the significance of the 3 officers who testified that Officer Northrup was standing when he was struck by the vehicle.

Today, as Umar Zameer is acquitted, we continue to mourn for the family of the officer who lost his life in a tragic accident, and the fact that Zameer was smeared before his trial by far too many. The encounter happened roughly a month after a terrorist killed four members of a…
Doug Ford and John Tory had a lot to say when Zameer was out on bail. Both are silent on this verdict today.
