“Senate Report On Islamophobia Says Urgent Action Needed To Reverse Rising Tide Of Hate”

November 2nd, 2023: “Human rights committee reportook a year, involved 21 public meetings and 138 witnesses.”

At a risk of overt sarcasm, you could take 8 years, involve 188 meetings, and call 1388 witnesses, and it won’t make a bit of difference.

Call it a misplacement of responsibility. What “anti-racists” want is for the attitudes of the general public to change, when what is needed is change from government, media and academia regarding racism in Canada.

“The evidence is clear. Islamophobia is an acute threat to Canadian Muslims and urgent action is needed,” Sen. Salma Ataullahjan, chair of the Senate human rights committee, told reporters Thursday.

“We must commit to building a more inclusive country and to better promoting our Muslim relatives and friends, neighbours and colleagues.”

And how to proceed, Ms. Ataullahjan? Why not go directly to those who shape public perception on racial issues in society? While your at it, Salma, try asking yourself whether CBC, Toronto Star, Globe & Mail and Montreal Gazette have made your problems worse, as opposed to working to minimize social conflict.

But you won’t. Instead, the goal is to re-orient the thinking of non-Muslims by, as you say, “better promoting our Muslim relatives and friends.”

  1. And how much money was spent on that committee to give us the usual “S-bombs we already know” speech?

    It is nice to see I actually agree with Brad: Our dictatorship is indeed the primary reason why we have racism. They push this collective guilt that nearly everyone in Canuckistan have absolutely nothing to do with while playing these deliberately divisive and wokester agenda garbage that is designed to keep everyone at each other’s throats. None of this is by accident; it is entirely by design; it always has been since the Senior Trudeau days.

    And to those so-called anti-racists, until you are willing to discuss the destruction of everything whites value, including their beliefs and their very lives, which is a clear case of racism towards a group based on skin colour, we have nothing to discuss.

  2. I agree , we are also seeing Zionism being cultivated in the 1st Nations communities by the Trudeau government. I think it is uncanny how (Zionist 1st Nations) is now raising its ugly head in the form of
    “1st Nations were here 1st, so we are 1st and since we were here 1st everything is ours” mantra. This is all being pushed by the UNDRIP (Foundational Agreement) that was signed by the Trudeau government, UN and 1st nations. “Whitey will own nothing and be a slave”.
    So, I wonder what involvement Pierre Trudeau had with residential schools/reserves, because he was the PM in 68 -75?, so what did he do to end the legacy?, I will bet he made money from it and that is who 1st Nations should be going after is Trudeau and his wealth.
