Jihad Watch

Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Canadian government supports “anti-Islamophobia” motion, will likely pass

Feb 16, 2017 10:58 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

The Liberal Party of Canada has opted to support an “anti-Islamophobia” motion (M-103) in Parliament which calls on the government to “condemn Islamophobia and study the best ways to quell an ‘increasing public climate of hate and fear.’” M-103 is the second anti-Islamophobia motion tabled. The first was unanimously approved and passed, but M-103 has stirred up questions and opposition by some Conservative Members of Parliament.

Huffington Post Canada ran an uninformed article that blamed opposition to the motion on “right-wing activists”:

Right-wing activists are attacking a motion in Canadian Parliament intended to combat anti-Islamic racism and religious discrimination as a crackdown on free speech.

It doesn’t outlaw anything. Nevertheless, conservative websites have condemned it as a “war against free speech” and a “modern day blasphemy law.”

Among those “right wing activists” mentioned was Jihad Watch. There are those who disparage “right wingers” without actually identifying any legitimate reasons why they’re doing so. The first “anti-Islamophobia” motion was passed because few knew about it. Now, due to “right-wing” reporting about the historical and current truths about the “Islamophobia” ploy, opposition began. A rally with little planning time to organize drew about 1,200 people at Canada Christian College in Toronto; it included some Conservative MP’s and admirable, hardworking advocates for freedoms.

M-103 was tabled by MP Iqra Khalid last December. Joe Warmington writes in the Toronto Sun:

I have said Khalid’s motion should be ripped up for good. Canada needs a lot of things, but not government deciding who and what is Islamophobic. Scary a government would even try.

When debate began in Parliament yesterday, Khalid refused to remove the word “Islamophobia” from the motion, although it is supposedly intended to fight all forms of racism. If that is so, why single out “Islamophobia,” particularly after one such motion was already passed?

In attempting to defend her refusal, Khalid obscenely and brazenly compared the victimization and suffering of Muslims to that of the Jews during the Holocaust:

“I will not do so, any more than I would speak to the Holocaust and not mention that the overwhelming majority of victims were six million followers of the Jewish faith and that anti-Semitism was the root cause of the Holocaust,” she said. “We cannot address a problem if we fail to call it by its true name.”

Jews, not Muslims, remain the group most targeted by hate crimes. Khalid’s disgraceful comparison was an open insult to the Jewish people. If we are going to call the real problem “by its true name,” as Khalid put it, it is Islamic jihad, which has been responsible for the murder of millions; it even played a key role in the Holocaust, when the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem worked with Hitler to further the annihilation of the Jews.

Christians are being wiped out in the Middle East by jihadists, Yazidis and Kurds are being massacred, Europe has descended into chaos because of Muslim migrants; the Muslim Brotherhood plan to conquer North America is available for all to read; and Khalid stands proudly in the Canadian Parliament battling for the “Islamophobia” agenda, backed by her liberal allies.

Some points and questions to ponder:

  1. “Islamophobia” has never been defined.
  2. Canada already has hate laws.
  3. Will Iqra Khalid agree to a document that rebukes all mosques, Islamic centers and imams that routinely spew hatred against Christians, Jews and gays in Canada?
  4. Will Khalid publicly recognize the fact that part of the reason why Jews are singled out for anti-Semitism is because of Islamic propaganda claiming that a Jewish state is entirely illegitimate, and that this propaganda is a paramount reason for on-campus hatred and anti-Israel drives?
  5. Will Khalid rebuke the hate-filled al Quds day rallies where speakers openly call for violence against Jews, and demand that these calls for violence be outlawed in the name of diversity  and inclusion?
  6. Since the Muslim Brotherhood is a significant concern in today’s world, is Khalid willing to recognize publicly the truth that the group’s call to jihad as a duty to all Muslims from its founder Hassan al-Banna has no place in Canada?

Islamic jihadis and Sharia hardliners are leading perpetrators of global hate. Iqra Khalid knows that. She should have no difficulty in denouncing what they do.

The former CIA Operations Officer and strategic policy and intelligence expert, Clare Lopez, asserts that the “Islamophobia industry” is an “all-out assault on free speech,” and points out the hypocrisy of the bogus movement:

The ‘Islamophobia’ industry has neither the ability nor actual wish to stop jihad but it sure does wish so many were not putting ‘Allahu Akbar’ and Islamic terror together and then speaking out about it.

Lopez addresses the malignant agenda behind the Islamophobia business:

Of course, the campaign to shut down free speech when it’s about Islam is very much in line with the top agenda item of the OIC (Organization of Islamic Cooperation), which is to achieve the criminalization of criticism of Islam in national legal codes.

It has also been reported numerous times on Jihad Watch that according to Abdur-Rahman Muhammad, a former imam who was once a member of the International Institute for Islamic Thought, “Islamophobia” is a “loathsome term” which “is nothing more than a thought-terminating cliche conceived in the bowels of Muslim think tanks for the purpose of beating down critics.”

A closer look at the individuals behind Canada’s anti-Islamophobia motion is disquieting. The essence of the petition (e-411) by Samer Majzoub formed the basis of the anti-Islamophobia motions. It was discovered that Majzoub managed a Muslim Brotherhood-linked Montreal high school, and that he is also a leader of the self-described Muslim Brotherhood-linked Muslim Association of Canada (MAC). MP Iqra Khalid is also another questionable character:

Last January, Khalid met with board members of Palestine House in Mississauga (near Toronto) and a “large number of members of the Palestinian  community,” including Palestinian political activists. Palestine House supports the Palestinian al-Quds Intifada, and its settlement program was defunded by the former Conservative Harper government  for allying itself with terrorism. It was also condemned for “celebrating the release of terrorists and honouring the founder of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), one of the groups that formed the Palestine Liberation Organization and “in the 1960s and ’70s, was responsible for numerous armed attacks and aircraft hijackings.”

According to the Canadian Arab newspaper Meshwar, which covered the event at Palestine House in honour of Khalid, “the purpose of the event was to strengthen the relationship between the members of the [Palestinian] community and the Liberal members of Parliament.”

During her time as a student at York University, “Khalid was active in student politics,” and she served as “president of both the Muslim student association and one of the two Pakistani student associations.” The Muslim Student Associations are well known for their aggressive Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions on-campus drives to demonize and delegitimize the State of Israel, and for their intimidation of Jewish students.

No amount of reasoning, historical truth and present-day calamities perpetrated by Islamic supremacism will convince hard leftists that the tables have turned since the colonialist days. Long after colonialism, Islamic jihad stands robust, perpetrating the worst human rights violations globally. In the West, the Muslim Brotherhood works through large advocacy lobbies to propagate the lie that Muslims are victims of “islamophobia,” even when Islam is being justifiably critiqued for human rights atrocities.

Even the Judiciary Chief Ayatollah Sadeq Amoli Larijani of the Islamic Republic of Iran advances the same deceptive views that are expressed by proponents of the “Islamophobia” agenda.

In Western countries, which claim (to be advocates of) freedom and human rights, Islamophobia is constantly promoted and day after day attacks on Muslims and their religious sites intensify.

“Criminal acts committed by a few terrorists calling themselves Muslim have nothing to do with Islam,” the senior cleric underscored, adding that no Muslim should face insecurity in Western countries because of such acts of terrorism.

Jihadists and Islamic supremacists work in tandem; they routinely and ubiquitously exaggerate the frequency and the severity of hate crimes against Muslims everywhere, while steering clear of mentioning the hate and murder that Muslims commit globally.

One Canadian Conservative MP, Michael Chong, has rallied his support behind Khalid’s anti-Islamophobia motion. He said:

It was untrue that the motion grants special treatment to Canadian Muslims, noting how the House has passed motions in recent years dealing with Jewish people, Yazidis, and Egyptian Coptic Christians.

Shame on Chong. Islamic jihadists committed mass atrocities against these completely peaceful and innocent groups.  No mass atrocities are being committed against Muslims, except by other Muslims. Muslims continue to be ranked below blacks and Jews on hate crime lists. In addition, Chong mentioned motions introduced in Canada about Jews, Yazidis and Egyptian Coptic Christians, but these were never presented as motions against Judeophobia, Yazidiphobia or Coptophobia. The absurdity of that notion illustrates the frivolity of his argument and brings to mind again the ongoing question: what exactly is the working definition of “Islamophobia” again?

“M-103: Liberal Government Will Support Iqra Khalid’s Motion Condemning Islamophobia,” by Ryan Maloney, Huffington Post, February 15, 2017:

Federal Liberals will support a backbencher’s motion calling on the government to condemn Islamophobia and study the best ways to quell an “increasing public climate of hate and fear.”

Motion 103, tabled by Liberal MP Iqra Khalid last December and set for debate Wednesday, has sparked divisions among Conservatives and raised the ire of those who argue its adoption could have a chilling effect on free speech.

The non-binding motion has also been the subject of rumours and innuendo from some right-wing blogs in Canada and the United States suggesting Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is seeking to somehow criminalize criticism of Islam.

Khalid addressed some of those concerns Wednesday at a press conference with Heritage Minister Mélanie Joly. The pair was surrounded by Liberal MPs in what Joly called a “demonstration of solidarity.”

Joly said that the government was voicing “strong and clear” support for Khalid’s motion. She later said that while all Liberal MPs will be free to vote based on their own beliefs, there will be “very strong support” from caucus.

“M-103 is about ensuring that, in Canada, we stand for free and respectful exchanges of ideas and opinions,” Joly said. “And there is no place for hatred and no tolerance of abuse.”

Khalid noted that the motion came on the heels of an e-petition tabled in the House in Commons, signed by nearly 70,000 Canadians, condemning Islamophobia.

If M-103 passes, the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage will be asked to develop a “whole of government approach” to combat systemic racism and “contextualize hate crime reports so Canadians can understand what is happening on the ground,” Khalid said.

The Mississauga MP said that while the motion makes specific mention of Islamophobia, it is “broad in scope to include all marginalized communities.”

Khalid also noted that she and other colleagues have received hateful comments over the motion in recent weeks that only highlight the work that needs to be done.

“This strengthens my resolve to continue to combat this issue,” she said.

‘This is not legislation’

Khalid denied the motion could in any way restrict the rights of Canadians to express their views on things such as sharia law or face-covering niqab veils.

“This is a motion, this is not legislation,” Khalid said. “And I would be the first person to oppose anything that infringes on our Charter of Rights and Freedoms. This motion is about having a study on how we can tackle important issues like systemic racism and religious discrimination.”

But several Tory leadership hopefuls have already made it clear that they will not support M-103. Kellie Leitch tweeted last month that the motion does not treat “all religions equally” and suggested it grants “special privileges” to Islam.

In recent days, other rivals have joined Leitch in criticizing Khalid’s effort and announcing they too will not support the motion.

Andrew Scheer released a statement saying M-103 is not inclusive.

“It singles out just one faith,” Scheer said in a release. “I believe that all religions deserve the same level of respect and protection.”

Maxime Bernier suggested that while M-103 is not a bill and lacks teeth, it could be a “first step” in restricting the fundamental right of Canadians to express their opinions on a specific religion.

“We should reaffirm everyone’s right to believe in and criticize whatever belief they want, whether it is Islam, Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, atheism, or any other,” Bernier said in his release.

Tory leadership contenders seek specifics

Tory leadership Kevin O’Leary also told The National Post he won’t support the motion. “It is ill-conceived and it is a slap in the face to other religions and to other races,” O’Leary told The Post.

Both Scheer and Bernier took specific umbrage with the fact that the motion does not define Islamophobia. At the press conference Wednesday, Joly said Islamophobia is the “discrimination of Muslim people and people who are of Muslim faith.”

A reporter noted that Tory MPs have said they approached Khalid with ideas for amendments and were shut down. Khalid said the wording of the motion, as it stands, has broad support from MPs, organizations, and Canadians at large.

“Watering down the words of this motion is not in the best interest of all these people,” she said.

Ambrose accuses Liberals of playing games

Interim Conservative Leader Rona Ambrose has also said she won’t vote for the motion. Ambrose took to Facebook to explain that while M-103 won’t bar free speech, she is concerned the term “Islamophobia” could be used to shut down legitimate debate and “to intimidate rather than to inform.”

“I do worry that some of my work trying to empower women and girls in Muslim communities could be branded as ‘Islamophobic’ if I criticize practices that I believe are oppressive,” she wrote.

Ambrose said two Tory critics tried to work with Khalid to change the language to reflect the need to fight discrimination against all religious communities, but were denied.

“This motion is simply being used by the Liberal Party and the Prime Minister to play partisan politics,” Ambrose said.

But at least one Tory leadership hopeful is prepared to support Khalid.

Michael Chong released a lengthy statement saying he will vote in favour of M-103. Chong’s statement said that, in light of the recent deadly attack on a Quebec City mosque, it is “appropriate and important that Canadian Parliamentarians” tackle the issue of anti-Islamic prejudice.

Chong said it was untrue that the motion grants special treatment to Canadian Muslims, noting how the House has passed motions in recent years dealing with Jewish people, Yazidis, and Egyptian Coptic Christians…..

        All the questions that are raised in the first part of this article are very valid. But they only focus on Christians and Jews. How about the rights of gay people and the women’s equality rights? We will not be able to stem this trend to lable ideas that oppose islamic backward and medieval propaganda if we do not work together! Women’s equality rights and the right to be gay instead of fearing for your job and fearing for your life are two very important pillars of Western society as we know it. To sacrifice those ideas and to sacrifice the safety of Christians and Jews is a despicable and truly dangerously ignorant act!

      • Allan says

        Feb 16, 2017 at 1:49 pm

        “communism” is fast fading? Are we paying attention to reality, hmmm? Recall, if you can, the excitement with which Bernie Sanders’ candidacy was welcomed last year’s by millions and millions of Americans, esp. YOUNG ones. True, BS claims to be a “socialist”, but leftist use of that word is a semantic trick to make their antisocial religion appear less threatening. “Socialism” is a euphemism for communism, of which Marxism is merely one type.

        Now, have we heard about a Christian communist named Hillary Clinton? Surely you have heard the name. Saint Hillary, a Methodist, I believe, has been a public figure for decades and ran for president last year. She expends only a small amount of effort to hide the fact that her objective is not much different from that of Thomas Muntzer, a Christian commie who lived about 500 years ago.

        Perhaps you are still convinced that communism is “fast fading”. If so, please explain the nonfading of favorite communist institutions and practices like compulsory government schooling, vast superhighway construction by government, airport communism, health care collectivism, heavy taxation upon incomes, and even central banking. Explain why the Stupid Party of America is so little opposed to military conscription, another old favorite of communists.

    With Khalid’s reference to the holocaust and murdering of Jews can she please explain….Islam’s role in murdering Jews….and its violent anti-Semitism..

    1)”allah’s apostle said the hour will not be established until you fight with the Jews and the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say “O muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me.KILL him”

    Bukhari 4:52:177

    And in the light of Islam’s history of murdering Jews (just for being Jews),what right does Khalid have to insultingly hijack the holocaust for her own political aims?

    2)Will the Canadian Government seek a ban on the anti-Jewish and anti-Christian teachings of the koran on the grounds that they are highly offensive, discriminatory and insulting?
    Why not??
    Is it one rule for moslems and another rule for every other religion?
    Should such teachings not be banned for stirring up hatred against non-muslims?

    such offensive teachings as…
    koran 3:56
    koran 9:30 allah curses the Christians and the Jews
    koran 98:v 6

    Perhaps the Canadian Government should be give time to study the koran and the hadiths to see just how ingrained hate speech is within islam.

          No more dogs is right as they are considered dirty ( I love dogs), no more music, no more arts. Women will need to dress extremely modestly in public covered head to toe. If not you are asking for it and fair game for being assaulted. Women will be treated as second class in general. No more special rights or acknowledgements for the LGBT community, you will be purged as will ALL non muslims. And yet you will not be able to speak against them.

    Screw Michael Chong, I think he is in the wrong party. Muslim extremists commit more hate crimes globally than any other religious group. Their Quran blatantly spews hate speech against other religious groups and unbelievers. This book shouldn’t even be allowed it Canada. How is a book that tells a group to kill Jews and unbelievers not hate speech. It is outrageous that they are crying and playing victim when their religion and it’s teachings is the #1 perpetrator of violence and terror worldwide. And has been for 1400 years. Why don’t they just conduct a study worldwide and then they will know why people are not accepting of the teachings in their book. It is pathetic they call the Right Wing nazis. When I look at it the only nazis I see are the Leftists and their ridiculous need to protect extremism at it’s finest.

    with killing, rape, taking over our countries, there are no go zones for us in our own countries, what they threathen us with, we can not dress anymore the way we want, Nordic women are dyeing their hair black, because they are afraid. People get raped, old, young, because the refugees did not know that that is NOT allowed, They even hold Jihad guard at night to tell people that they forbid them to drink or smoke and how they have to dress. They never could hack it in their own country, (to many fight among themselves) and now they want a ready made country which took us so long to built up, NO WAY!
    We respected all religions as long they do not harm to any human, animal or nature, but this, look at it !!!

    This is how it happens, the fall of western civilization to islamic jihad. Destroying free speech is the crux of their attack. If we can’t even criticize the dangers and evils of islam then we are completely neutered. Then there is nothing left to stop the islamic advance except civil war which seems inevitable. If they can destroy free speech they can hinder or destroy our collective will for self defense and good morals. These are wartime tactics for islam, they don’t give an ounce of respect for our justified fears and concerns about islamic jihad or the cultural depravities they import. They ignore the monumental human rights abuses and crimes of islam, and instead prefer to attack their own citizen’s basic right of critical and peaceful expression. Such an attack on basic human liberty and free speech is not a predictor of better days to come. This is brutal sharia down our throats and a demonic attack on human rights. Western governments are declaring war against their own people. And for what? the most brutal and inhumane ideology on the planet. Welcome to La La Land.

    INTOLERANCE? How about what Islam teaches? ISLAMIC APARTHEID IS INTOLERANT.
    ‘Al Walaa wal Baraa’ from Islamic sources:
    • -from “The Islaamic Concept of al-Walaa’ wal-Baraa’” by Khalid El-Gharib: …“[iv] to show enmity to those who show enmity to Allaah and His Messenger” (i.e. Muslims are to visibly demonstrate their enmity or towards the kufaar – non-Muslims)
    • -from a lecture given by Sheikh Abdullah al-Faisal (H.A.): “The implication of al-Baraa is that one HATES for the sake of Allah (SWT)…Al-Baraa means to recognize who your enemies are and to HATE them and EXTERMINATE them in their Endeavour to get rid of your Deen, al-Islam…Al-Baraa is to HATE the people who propagate Baatil (falsehood)—the Muslim should HATE them and (at least desire to) KILL them when the time comes.” (i.e. the hatred of Muslims toward the kufaar is for the purpose of ethnic cleansing)
    • -from Ahmad Sirhindi (1564-1624): “The honour of Islam lies in insulting kufr and kafirs. One who respects the kafirs dishonours the Muslims… The real purpose of levying jiziya on them is to humiliate them to such an extent that they may not be able to dress well and to live in grandeur. They should constantly remain terrified and trembling. It is intended to hold them under contempt and to uphold the honour and might of Islam.”
    • -from ibn Taymiyya, “Book of Emaan”: “… true believers show animosity and hatred towards disbelievers and never support them.”
    • -from Umar Sulayman ‘Abd-Allaah al-Ashqar, “Belief in Allah”: “The Muslim should regard the Kuffaar as enemies and hate them because of their kufr, just as he hates their kufr (disbelief) itself.”
    • from Sheikh Muhammad Saeed al Qatani, authoritative Saudi Sharia lawyer and imam at the Abu Bakr and Al Furqan Mosques in Mecca: “ The doctrine of al Wala wal Baraa is the real image for the actual practice of this faith.” (book “Al Walaa wal Baraa According to the Aqeedah of the Salaf”)

    Conflating anti-Islam with anti-Muslim is a political trick, useful for exploitation. We spent 50 years listening to the conflation of Communism and Russian people by government and whoever’s purpose it served. Most of us saw right through it, realizing the people were much like us, yet, living under a destructive ideology they were powerless to change. We didn’t hate the russian people, we hated their government.

    Islam is just like communism, wherever it dominates, in its manner of controlling peoples lives with non-compliance measures that include amputations and death. It makes banishment to Siberia seem less serious.

    So, like communism, I don’t like Islam because it takes away freedom of choice and flattens society into a Thomas Friedman modicom of incomptencies wherever it dominates – without the refuge of Vodka.

    This poorly defined cousin of racist – Islamophobia – does not even correctly define its use, the word denotively meaning fear of Islam. It is now being used to connotatively mean bigot, racist, hater of Muslims, etc. – complete misnomers.

    I have no hatred of Muslims though I think the ideology, Islam, is a repugnant stinker. And I also have no objections to my government eliminating those who plot and purvey violence in the name of Islam. Mainstream Islam has assured us that they are not really Muslims.

    I also think Scientology is a stinker, however, that doesn’t mean I hate Tom Cruise.

    “Islamophobia” needs a replacement because those who suffer most under, and have the most to fear from believers of Islam – are Muslims.

    And while we’re at it, and assuming you’re foolish enough to take the words Islamophobia and Islamonausea seriously (which would be a good indicator that you shouldn’t be taken seriously at all), aren’t phobias and nausea medical conditions and so why pass motions against medical conditions (as Angemon a week or so ago brought up about Islamophobia)?

    One way or another, Leftism and Islam need to be combatted not just with logic but with a good dose of ridicule too. Mocking foolishness and evil are the next best thing to eliminating them. Indeed, mockery can often serve as a route to the elimination of both.

      Feb 16, 2017 at 3:24 pm

      You CAN’T combat the left with logic. That’s why we’re in this mess.

      Take gun control for example.

      If you’re a burglar, which home would you rob. Home A which is armed, or Home B which is unarmed?

      And to take it further, if you know Home owner A will also shoot somebody he sees breaking into Home B, will you still rob home B?

      The obvious answer is no.

      But the left will just say to ban guns, even though every country in the world that’s done so has had higher crime rates, and a number have even become dictatorships.

      Or they’ll say something outlandish like, “Well what about the children who accidentally shoot themselves? If we banned guns, that wouldn’t happen.”

      Bad as it is if a child accidentally shoots themselves, (Stats show that happens less than a hundred times a year, in all of America I think) even if a law managed to ensure that was 100% eliminated, the trade off is thousand, millions even, of home owners are now defenseless.

      As well as any women period.

      Which is why Muslims rapes on women has skyrocketed.

      That’s as logical as you can get.

      And yet we on the right, who warned about this, are the rednecked racist whatever-ophobes.

      All of the left has this flock mentality, like a mob of sheep. (Ironic as that’s how the left behaves. Like a mob.)

      Weird thing is, scientists tested the flock attitudes of sheep.

      Sheep cluster up when danger is present, and researchers found that if an animal is separated from the flock, even if it has clear path to escape it will rejoin the flock no matter what, even if it must move toward the danger to do this.

      Alone, sheep know they will the primary target but, in the flock they know the odds are someone else is going to get eaten.

      Funny thing is, that’s also how liberals think. As long a someone else dies, or someone else’s property is destroyed, they don’t see any problem.

    .
    Ahmed Hussen Muslim Somali immigrant: Minister if immigration – states that Islam is benign and compatible with democracy.

He has done NOTHING for Canadians….just keeps drowning us deeper in debt! We have to listen to the abuse and insults that are hurled towards President Trump every single day and yet we are not allowed to say anything negative about the Muslims. The disrespect for President Trump is what should be considered a crime…..not Islamophobia! I would gladly trade TRUDEAU for TRUMP in a heartbeat! At least Trump is looking out for his OWN people and trying to protect their country! TRUDEAU is bending over backwards to turn Canada into an Islamic state! If anyone, including Muslims, do not like it in this country, then they should leave! Go back to where you came from and live in a country that has the laws you want to live under. I am sick to death of hearing about everybody’s rights! The problem is….we have too many rights in this country! Too many people are concerned about the colour of their skin, their sex, their sexual orientation, their this and their that!!! We live in such a ME, ME, ME…..I want, I want, I want society……it makes me feel totally sick to my stomach. I came to Canada as a child with my family, from Europe, to become a CANADIAN…..and we became CANADIANS….a TRUE CANADIANS! We would never think of demanding that Canada change ANYTHING for us. We have worked hard, we have asked for nothing. We are part of the people who came here for a better life and have helped to make this country what it is today. Now…..in the blink of an eye….TRUDEAU is taking all the hopes and dreams we ever had as immigrants. Before we know it, he will have turned Canada into an Islamic State. So, be prepared to watch your family be beheaded, your homes taken away from you, your wives, daughters and granddaughters being raped and forced to wear burkas. If you think you have no rights now…..wait until be become an Islamic State…..you will have absolutely NO RIGHTS THEN! Again, if people don’t like it here…..go back to where you came from!

    Islamophobia Blasphemy Law (M-103) – Manipulation and hypocrisy!

    Let there be no doubt that there is a problem with Islam and it is up to Muslims to fix, not Canadians.

    Central Canadian values have evolved out of centuries of Judeo-Christian tradition. Over the last two centuries, these values such as freedom of thought, belief, opinion and speech, took root in Canada and Quebec, and are the genesis and overarching guide in the formation and advancement of Canadian values. Since World War II, other traditions and cultures have contributed to attaining the values vastly recognized as Canadian values in the twenty-first century.

    In an increasingly complex world, it is difficult to judge the merits of many government initiatives. This is aggravated by the opportunistic nature of some government actions, which may pursue short-term tactical political advantage, rather than advancing a principled agenda. Short-term solutions and tactics are necessary, of course, but they should be consistent with a core of principles and values that guide the country’s development in the long term. Programs and policies that run counter to these values, however, should receive special scrutiny and consideration. How a newbie and possibly not-so-clever minister could promulgate a bill on such a divisive matter, is appalling!

    Canadians believe that society in general, and governments in particular, should treat all individual Canadians equally. The justice system must treat everyone fairly. It must not be used as a substitute for the elected legislature, and should be limited to applying the law. An unconstitutional law M-103, against Islamophobia blasphemy, in Canada! Why hasn’t the justice system intervened in this breach of the Charter’s Freedom of Speech? Puzzling!

    Since the 1990s, various federal political leaders and parties have claimed to be the best representatives to define and safeguard Canadian values. This claim is obviously intended to automatically exclude any other persons or parties from the right to define and govern Canada. This claim is a call to accept a form of dictatorship; be it one man or one party rule or fascism. Such claims, if accepted without question, can only prove to be harmful to the very basic of values treasured by Canadians, freedom and democracy.
    Who would have thought that Ms Khalid and her collaborators, far away from their brutal ancestry, were so unhappy in this civilized country as to impale the Canadian Shield with a M-103 dagger when Canadians have been abundantly tolerant and accommodating, and for Muslims to become so intolerant towards their gracious benefactors!

    Ms Khalid wrote M-103 before the Quebec attack; why did she single out Islamophobia? The fact is, as a rule, acts of hatred against Muslims are not statistically very high in Canada. On a per capita basis, a Jew is eight times more likely to be the victim of a hate crime than Muslims. Sure, due to Islamist activities overseas and a propensity for Islam leaders to instigate animosity and rudely impose on the Canadian way of life, it’s logical to assume that may translate into more hatred towards Muslims here. But in fact, Canadians on the whole, have not shown Muslims special animosity. Quite the contrary, acts of violence against Muslims by normal Canadians have been rare. Incidentally, the significant rise of so-called extreme right-wing groups in Canada that incompetent and coward mainstream media and unsophisticated social justice warriors are attempting to label as fascists! Well, they’re certainly no more extreme than any Islamist organizations already well established in this country. Note that such rise has only been triggered by Muslims making unreasonable expectations imposing on Canadian way of life and their privileged government benefits, financial or otherwise, unavailable to many economically-stricken Canadians.

    So, why the bill then? To further intimidate the establishment, the elites such as universities, churches, unions, media, pusillanimous politicians and bureaucrats to silence patriotic citizens who have legitimate concerns about the state of their nation and freedoms threatened by Islamic extremism? To increase protection of Islamists while they continue to cavalierly expropriate Canada towards hijrah? Allah’s orders?

    Canadians are confused and outraged, and rightly so. This bill is inciting bigger troubles and backlash. Of course not all Muslims are so unappreciative but they are just as irrelevant to protect themselves against their own as they’ve been for centuries in the Middle East. Why women subject themselves to Sharia’s degrading treatment and barbarism is beyond comprehension! Many Muslims may find it hard right now but at the other end of the spectrum, it hasn’t been easy for patriotic Canadians and Quebecers to be reproached and humiliated by traitorous politicians. Threats such as those by Trudeau and Couillard towards regular Canadians might just make them angrier and create a backlash not only against Muslim communities but authorities as well. After all, governments have been highly responsible for worsening relations between cultures by failing to set limits on Islam and ensuring equality for all as per the Constitution. What civilized nation would let its government promulgate unconstitutional laws dissolving its identity! No loyal and responsible leader would abandon its country, eventually turning its people into a globalized melting pot of androids under the umbrella of a barbaric medieval culture.
    Canada was once a sovereign nation dedicated to the wellbeing of Canadian-born citizens. This is no more. With the advent of the Trudeau government, our nation has morphed into a repository for the world’s disgruntled, particularly for Islamic nations, and probably degrading towards a cultural and economic disaster like Sweden. Did the people of Canada ask for such as thing? Of course not. Within contemporary Canada, the gulf between public will and the will of government has never been greater. It’s not fear of the unknown, it’s fear of what’s known.

    About 70% (likely more now) of Canadians surveyed AGREED OR STRONGLY AGREED that people who come to Canada should change their behaviour to be more like Canadians. None of this should be controversial. Canadians want sound immigration policies and are rightly sceptical of mass Jihad migration as observed in the EU, Britain, etc…

    Muslim communities expect all levels of government to implement measures to protect them from normal Canadians. Canadians would also be expected to attend awareness programs on Islamic ways which are highly suspected to be radicalization of course, especially of children. Nothing indicates that Muslims would have to attend programs on the Canadian way of life and genuinely adhere to Canadian values, and most importantly, put an end to Sharia and related activities. Apparently, Islam considers itself a religion of dignity and authority; it’s impossible to think of any Muslim submitting himself to the disbelievers; indeed it is forbidden for a Muslim to go to live amongst them and acknowledge their authority over him, because his presence amongst them would make him feel weak and isolated, and, then he would become docile and apologetic before them. But Muslims should be filled with morale and confidence, they should be leaders, not followers. Islam doesn’t assimilate, Islam dominates. Hence, Islam is incompatible with Western… Canadian civilization.

    So, things don’t fare well for the future of Canada. It’s disconcerting to Canadians and Quebecers that weaklings like Trudeau and Couillard could actually bequeath such a legacy to our children. Furthermore, it appears that most members of all main political parties have succumbed to the Islamophobia propaganda and are prepared to vote for this ridiculous and undemocratic law, and damn the torpedoes. Shameful!

    Ms Khalid, is there any chance that you would put M-103 on hold, if not rescind it, pending you briefing Allah on the indiscipline and anti-social behaviour of his disciples for the last 1,400 years? It would show courage, wisdom and tolerance.

    Ministers! Respectfully asking you to learn the real issues and smarten up.

    Very well put, Richard Courtemanche! All Canadians should read what you have written here. Maybe some of them will would wake up! The only thing that I would disagree with you on is your “question” to Ms. Khalid asking if she would put M-103 on hold, if not rescind it. She should NOT even have a choice of “putting it on hold” or not……M-103 should NOT even have been a consideration in Canada. It should NOT have even have gotten to the point that it did! It will be interesting to see what our bleeding-heart Liberals do next!!! I somehow doubt that it will be in the best interest of TRUE CANADIANS!

    no no no to this bill. Justin trudeau we are not going to stand idly by and allow you liberals and islam to introduce a bill that do not include all regelions . islam should not be mention in any bill. there are a lot of regelions in this country and there was never a problem. there were millions that died from this country in the name of freedom and free speech. you cannot take away our rights because some one gets offended by what others say about them. we are not the middle east but you are the one that is making it hard for Canadians to trust anything you do or say. some people died in Quebec so did a lot of women . we remember them and pray that it never happens again. please resign and whoever introduced this bill please resign as well. because when you are gone so is this bill.

    Guarantee of Rights and Freedoms
    Rights and freedoms in Canada 1.
    The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees the rights and freedoms set out in it subject only to such reasonable limits prescribed by law as can be demonstrably justified in a free and democratic society.

    Fundamental Freedoms
    Fundamental freedoms 2. Everyone has the following fundamental freedoms:
    (a) freedom of conscience and religion;
    (b) freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and other media of communication;
    (c) freedom of peaceful assembly; and

    The Left and Islam are Allies in the Destruction of Western Christian Civilization, each for their own reasons but both share the same goal of the Destruction of the Foundations of Western civilization…That’s why the flooding of our Homelands with Muslims it’s the Lefts Invading Army by Proxy ,and that’s why the Special consideration for Muslims,and the Oppression of the founding Cultures of the Western Nations..

    We need to stop catering to the Islam people. This is a western world and we do not want another Islam country in 50 years.
