[Canadian Muslim Public Affairs Council @CMPAConline]

CMPAC stands in solidarity with the BC Muslim coomunity and endorses BCMA’s @bc_muslim statement condemning the anti-Muslim remarks made by @katy_merrifield, Campaign Director of the Conservative Party of British Columbia @Conservative_BC, including remarks vilifying Islam and Muslim communities.

Amid rising Islamophobia across Canada, such rhetoric from senior political figures risks legitimizing anti-Muslim discrimination, reinforcing harmful stereotypes, undermining the safety of Muslim communities, and contributing to a political climate in which their marginalization becomes increasingly normalized.

CMPAC echoes BCMA’s call for the Leader of the Conservative Party of BC @LDoerkson to remove Merrifield from campaign leadership and public-facing roles, issue a formal public apology to Muslim British Columbians, explicitly reject anti-Muslim rhetoric, and outline concrete measures to prevent its recurrence.

We further support BCMA’s call for all political parties to adopt and enforce clear standards against Islamophobia, antisemitism, racism, xenophobia, and religious bigotry, provide appropriate anti-racism and anti-Islamophobia training, and ensure swift accountability when these standards are violated.

This January 29th will be the eight anniversary of the Quebec City mosque shooting which took away six of our brother, while injuring many others. 

This January 29th is also the National Day of Remembrance of the Quebec City Mosque Attack and Action against Islamophobia in Canada. 

Yesterday, the City of Vancouver joined Canadians in recognizing this day.

Action starts with remembrance. 

Together, we continue the fight against violent Islamophobia.
