Two southwestern Ontario communities are joining a Canadian alliance to combat the rising incidents of Islamophobia.<\/p>\n
Windsor and London are two of six cities across the country planning to sign a new charter condemning anti-Muslim hate crimes.<\/p>\n
Leaders from those six cities will hold simultaneous news conferences on Monday, following the Canada Day weekend.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The move is prompted by the National Council of Canadian Muslims, a civil liberties and advocacy organization that says “hate incidents and stereotyping of Canadian Muslims is growing in frequency and intensity.”<\/p>\n
Other cities signing the charter on Monday include Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto and Montreal.<\/p>\n
