After sustained advocacy, coordination, and efforts, Canada will join other nations today in finally banning products from illegal Israeli settlements.

This is a major step forward in the fight to align Canadian policy with human rights for everyone.

After sustained advocacy, coordination, and efforts, Canada will join other nations today in finally banning products from illegal Israeli settlements.

This is a major step forward in the fight to align Canadian policy with human rights for everyone.

Now, after sustained advocacy, illegal settlement goods are not welcomed anymore on Canadian shelves.

We welcome and look forward to the implementation of this new ban.

We are deeply disturbed to see such attacks against members of the sikh community, this time on the streets of Toronto.

We are relieved to see that an arrest has been made and charges have been laid in this allegedly hate motivated attack.

Hate is on the rise across Canada. It is time for all communities to stand and work together to make sure that we are here for each other.

It is deeply troubling to see Ontario Crown prosecutor Moiz Karimjee, who has vigorously prosecuted anti-Semitic crimes, smeared by Ezra Levant with insinuations that he is advancing a so-called “Muslim Brotherhood agenda’ for prosecuting an assault against a Palestinian.

These are not harmless political insults. Courts have previously found Ezra Levant liable for defamation on multiple occasions. Labeling a Crown prosecutor who is Muslim in this way can seriously undermine future equal prosecution of all forms of hate for fear of being unjustifiably labeled and undermine public confidence in the Crown and the justice system.

While there must be room for vigorous criticism of government and the justice system, the Ministry of the Attorney General has a responsibility to protect its employees from targeted Islamophobic harassment, intimidation and defamatory public attacks, to ensure that Crowns are protected in their decision to prosecute all forms of hate with equal vigour.

Campuses are for the free and frank expression of ideas and opinions.

It is shocking to see a professor, someone given the responsibility of mentorship and guidance, appear to call for violence against students over the latter’s Palestine advocacy.

This is deeply disturbing and totally unacceptable.

Anti-Palestinian racism continues to exist on our campuses, and it is time that administrators sat down with the community to tackle this growing systemic problem.

If you are a U of T alum, we encourage you to send a letter to the university or to tag them below in calling for accountability. We are also reaching out to engage and will provide updates as they become available

We need 1,000 people to donate $50 per month to win the battle to ban all illegal Israeli settlement products from Canadian shelves!

Canada just issued a major Advisory warning businesses to not work or trade with these settlements.

Your leadership and advocacy made that possible.

Now it’s time to build on that and push for a full ban on Israeli settlement products from Canada!

We need your leadership now more than ever.

Donate today. Become one of the 1,000 donors we need for this campaign for $50 a month.

Let’s get it done!

Please see this important statement by BC Attorney General Niki Sharma in light of the recent vandalism of the Fleetwood Islamic Society.

The mosque was covered in Islamophobic threats and graffiti, as well as raw animal parts.

Please see this important statement from the Fleetwood Islamic Academy Society in Surrey, BC regarding a recent incident where the mosque was vandalized with Islamophobic threats and raw animal matter.

Threats like “Get out or die!” and “Islam is Trash!” were found written on the walls of the mosque by the community’s attendees who arrived in the morning for prayer.

Authorities have been notified, an investigation is underway, and we are in contact with all parties on the ground.

This sort of intimidation and hatred has become a norm in Canada against the Muslim community. It is deeply disturbing and disappointing. It is time for elected officials to sit down with community members to build a National Strategy on Combatting Islamophobia.

Enough is enough.

An employee in Ontario was fired for attending Jumaa.

So we stood up for him and won a settlement!

A young Muslim worker always made up the time he was away.

But a new supervisor punished and dismissed him.

When the worker reached out to us, our Legal Team took up his case and set out his rights under the Human Rights Code.

We pressed his employer for violating a religious accommodation it had honoured for more than a year.

Eventually, we obtained a settlement in the worker's favour.

No one should have to choose between their faith and their job.

If you have faced discrimination at work because of your religion, NCCM is here.

It is deeply disappointing to see Mohan Bhagwat, the Chief Leader of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, be allowed to enter Canada to rally his supporters.

Bhagwat has presided over many instances of communal violence against Sikhs, Muslims, and Christians in India.

The RSS is, as many voices in Canada have warned leading up to Bhagwat's visit, a fascist paramilitary group that relegates all non-Hindu groups in India into second-class citizenship.

Now, the face of that violent ideology is using Canada as a major platform to expand the RSS's reach.

That Bhagwat pays lip service to diversity and tolerance in Canada cannot hide the ugly fact that the RSS network has been implicated in mass murder and violence across India, against other groups, for decades.

No such individual, organization, or ideology should be allowed to take root in Canada, let alone expand. It is disappointing to see him not found inadmissible, and beyond disappointing to see past Canadian politicians showing up beside Bhagwat during his events.
