The six men, originally from Morocco, Algeria and Guinea, were fathers, sons, husbands, and brothers.<\/h4>\n<h4>Yet the rising Islamophobia in Canada had impacted Muslims long before this tragedy. And not surprising to many, the hatred has continued to rise.<\/h4>\n<h4>Statistics Canada found hate crimes against Muslims in Canada grew 253 per cent from 2012 to 2015. It got even worse: police-reported general hate crimes shot up by 50 per cent in 2017 reaching a new all-time high. These numbers are largely driven by incidents targeting Muslims with the increases being driven mainly by events in Ontario and Qu\u00e9bec.<\/h4>\n<h4>\u00a0<\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Qu\u00e9bec City mosque massacre, the worst mass murder to take place in a house of worship in Canadian history, was a shock to Canada\u2019s multicultural utopia. \u00a0 The Qu\u00e9bec City mosque massacre, the worst mass murder to take place in a house of worship in Canadian history, was a shock to Canada\u2019s multicultural utopia. &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":18538,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"facebook_108372464460192_245495985553329":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[128,209,214,631],"class_list":["post-7052","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-world","tag-canada","tag-islamophobia","tag-mosque","tag-terrorism"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.3 -
