Canadian Islamic Forum Warns Quebec Government Against Fuelling Islamophobia
\n……………..<\/p>\n
The Canadian Muslim Forum (FMC-CMF) has voiced deep concern over remarks made by Quebec Premier Fran\u00e7ois Legault and Minister Jean-Fran\u00e7ois Roberge during the opening of the new parliamentary session. In a statement released Friday, the forum criticized Legault\u2019s claim that Quebec is \u201cunder attack by radical Islamists\u201d and his pledge to impose \u201cnew restrictions on freedoms in the name of secularism,\u201d describing the language as divisive and alarming.<\/p>\n
The FMC-CMF said the government has provided no evidence to support its assertions, warning that such rhetoric risks stigmatizing Quebec\u2019s Muslim community and intensifying Islamophobia. It emphasized that portraying any group as a collective threat undermines social cohesion and fosters hostility.<\/p>\n
The organization urged the Quebec government to adopt a responsible political approach focused on healthcare, education, housing, and dignity for all citizens, while respecting the province\u2019s Charter of Rights and Freedoms and promoting unity over division.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
