B’nai Brith Canada Appalled by Antisemitism on “Muslims in Calgary” Website

Editor's Note: The appallingly anti-Semitic postings of the group "Muslims in Calgary" and a Vancouver mosque, reported by B'nai Brith, might explain the concerns about Islam by Canadian citizens. The government is not inclined to address hatred promoted by Muslim groups. Instead it would "quell" those who might express concerns by labeling them "Islamophobic." No wonder Canadians are suspicious of Motion M-103 and are losing trust in this government! This photo was posted by

Process Nerd: The M-103 Islamophobia report hits the House soon. What’s next?

Editor's Note: As reported by Kady O’Malley, there’s very little information about what the Heritage Committee’s report on Motion M-103, anticipated to be released very soon, will say. Motion M-103, passed by the House of Commons in March, 2017, tasked the Heritage Committee with undertaking a study in order to “develop a whole-of-government approach to reducing or eliminating systemic racism and religious discrimination, including Islamophobia, in Canada.” People hold signs

UK: May government rejects petition for Free Speech Act and end to “hate speech” laws

Editor's Note: Robert Spencer highlights the UK government’s fear of free speech in this article on the Home Office’s rejection of a petition calling for a Free Speech Act. “Hate speech” laws are a tool of the powerful to silence dissenters. The person or group empowered with determining what is and is not “hate speech” has total power over the public discourse, and can criminalize any perspectives that the government does not favor. “Hate speech” laws are, in short, a tool f

POLL: 49% Of Canadians Oppose “National Day Of Remembrance And Action On Islamophobia”, Just 17% Sup

Editor's Note: Spencer Fernando reports on a recent poll showing that 49% of Canadians oppose and only 17% support a “National Day of Remembrance and Action on Islamophobia.” The Trudeau government did not listen to the views of Canadians on Motion M-103, will it listen to them regarding a day against “Islamophobia”? The Canadian people consistently see through the attempts by the elites to slander legitimate questions and criticism of Islam as “Islamophobia.” A Forum Resea

Sweden: 71-year-old man prosecuted for “hate speech” for criticizing Islam

Editor's Note: A 71-year-old Swedish man is prosecuted for hate speech for criticizing Islam. Is Sweden a cautionary tale of what Motion M-103 could lead to in Canada? Because of Muslim migrants, Sweden has a skyrocketing crime rate, and some heavily Muslim areas are practically war zones. And this what they’re prosecuting. “71-year-old Denny called out Islam for being a ‘fascist ideology’ – prosecuted for hate speech,” translated from “71-årige Denny kallade islam för ”fasci

PETITION: Sue-Ann Levy - Council's newest social justice warrior promotes 'Islamophobia'

Editor's Note: As we await the Heritage Committee’s report regarding Motion M-103, Toronto Councillor Neethan Shan wants that city to designate January 29th (the day of the mosque shootings in Quebec City in 2017) as a Day of Remembrance and Action on Islamophobia. As does Motion M-103, Shan’s proposed motion highlights one particular group. This has so upset Jewish community activist Vivienne Ziner that she has posted a petition opposing Shan’s motion. Councillor Neethan Sha

Germany: Return of the Stasi Police State?

Editor's Note: Judith Bergman describes how the social media are mandated to be the new thought police in Germany, where those who make offensive comments on social media can even be charged with hate speech. Is Canada’s Motion M-103 a step in that direction? Germany's new law requires social media platforms, such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, to censor their users on behalf of the government. Social media companies are obliged to delete or block any online "criminal offe

MALCOLM: Don't let them tell you it's wrong to criticize radical Islam

Editor's Note: Candice Malcolm highlights the ‘moral panic’ that criticism of Islam can generate in Canada, with Prime Minister Trudeau accusing Conservative leader Andrew Scheer of “Islamophobia” for criticizing Trudeau’s lenient treatment of returning ISIS fighters. Imagine how taking action on “Islamophobia” as Motion M-103 recommends could further stifle free speech about Islam. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau participates in Fortune Global Forum Armchair Discussion "Global

Editor's Note: Sources say that Islamophobia won’t be a central focus of the Heritage Committee’s report on Motion M-103, expected shortly after Parliament resumes on January 29th. But why not avoid the term altogether? A source said that while the report does mention the debate over the definition of the term, it doesn’t 'go on and on and on about it' Liberal MP Iqra Khalid makes an announcement about an anti-Islamophobia motion on Parliament Hill while Minister of Canadian

Diane Bederman: How do we define Islamophobia?

Editor's Note: In 2017, the Canadian Parliament passed a motion, Motion M-103, condemning “Islamophobia.” Yet, as Diane Bederman points out, “Islamophobia” can be defined so broadly that a law arising from Motion M-103 could preclude any reasonable discussion of Islam. And four major Canadian media outlets could offer no definition of “Islamophobia.” “It is obviously a weaponized word that our leaders would do well to avoid. MOTION 103 That, in the opinion of the House, the
