New study to find the reason behind Canadians converting to Islam

Amid increasing number of people who choose Islam, a new Canadian study has been trying to answer the question: why Canadians convert to Islam?

Looking into the reasons, Public Safety Canada is funding a project by an Australian academic to study why Canadians convert to Islam. 

Prof. Scott Flower of the University of Melbourne plans to spend the next few months in Canada to interview converts to Islam in order to find out the reason behind their decision. 

Muslims make around 2.8 percent of Canada’s 32.8 million population, and Islam is the number one non-Christian faith in the country.
