Sex Education; Harper's War on Hijab - Maulana Syed Muhammad Rizvi
Concerns over the age appropriateness and content over the new Ontario sex education curriculum
Parents have a right to withdraw their children from programs that aren't in line with their values
The available right becomes our duty to use this opportunity
The availability of Islamic elementary schools are an opportunity which responsible parents cannot ignore, in comparison to the alternatives
The struggles faced by the Muslim community in establishing and growing Islamic schools
High rankings of Islamic schools in the Greater Toronto area according to the Fraser Institute and EQAO testing
Daily occurences of violence and destruction of historical sites carried out by ISIS
Implications faced by Muslims globally due to Islamophobia caused by ISIS's actions
Conservative government push to ban hijab from citizenship ceremonies
Quebec judge case dismissal, claiming hijab is not suitable attire for the courtroom
“We are also ISIS victims, with the implications we face in Canada that strengthen Islamophobia. The Federal government not only doesn’t help us, rather they fuel the fire further.”
“This is not the Canada which the world has come to know as a multicultural, tolerant society. Today it was a Hijabi lady, tomorrow it’s a Sikh & his turban, then a skullcap, then a nun with her habit. They will all be dismissed from court for being unsuitably dressed. Let’s rescue the soul of Canada.”
