Can Prime Minister Justin Trudeau please give his cluttered head a good shake and ask himself just why he appointed activist Amira Elbhawaby as something called a 'special representative' on combatting Islamophobia.
Does this man have any conception of equality under the law?
Let’s call it the Islamophobia czar because you know this is all about promoting more of Trudeau’s toxic identity politics and while this new office will do nothing to calm the waters of alleged Islamophobia, it will quite probably exacerbate any nascent tensions between Muslims and the rest of Canadians.
When is the Christaphobia czar coming out of the Prime Minister’s Office? There’s an unhealthy degree of contempt for evangelical Christians and conservative Roman Catholics accreting from the Trudeau government but I don’t see the Liberals rushing to our assistance.
But we don’t need the protection of the federal government and frankly neither do Muslims, who are successfully living and thriving in Canada's fair and open society. Get with it Trudeau: most Canadians don’t care what your religion is and don’t need a Trudeau-appointed “representative” to lecture them about how you should make an issue out of it.
Just what is “Islamophobia?” Have you ever seriously asked yourself that question? We haven’t heard much Islamophobia of late. Trudeau has been too busy calling everybody who opposes him as racists and misogynists and he hasn’t been accusing Christians, Jews, Hindus, Sikhs and the followers of Wicca of Islamophobia.
Let’s be honest, if there are people who are so afraid and hateful of Muslims they are prepared to exercise violence against them, they are probably plotting such malfeasance in their basements and will never bring their fantasies to fruition.
And just get a load of Trudeau’s selection for Islamophobia czar. Elghawaby has a history of outrageous statements that should make even Trudeau think twice about appointing her to a federal government position. Yet the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) issued a statement so disgustingly woke and meaningless it could have been a statement of creed in George Orwell’s Animal Farm.
“She will help advance respect for equity, inclusion and diversity.” Remember equity does not mean equality, it means affirmative action or reverse discrimination, while inclusion and diversity can mean anything you want them to mean.
Elghawaby wrote the monarchy in Canada should be dissolved because Queen Elizabeth II was racist and that Canada Day is a celebration of “European, Judeo-Christian storytelling.”
Hey, that statement sounds more than vaguely anti-Semitic to me. I'm offended and so are my Jewish friends. Do we need a representative too?
Why would someone like that even want to work for the Government of Canada?
Trudeau’s ringing endorsement of the new czar was underwhelming: “I am looking forward to working with her,” he said in a statement that was even bland for PMO standards.
Elghawaby said of the monarchy: “Its very existence and survival is built upon the oppression it benefited from throughout its shameful history.” She continued that it is “one of the most powerful symbols of racial oppression” in a March 13, 2021 Toronto Star column.
This woman has a hell of a lot of nerve.
She is at liberty to say these outrageous things because she lives in a country with a Judeo-Christian heritage that was colonized by a British Empire that had respect for freedom of speech, freedom of religion and the rule of law.
That empire outlawed slavery while Moslem states continued it.
If Elghawaby criticized Islam in most Moslem states, she would be executed because these theocratic entities have no tolerance for infidels.
If she lived in Taliban-ruled Afghanistan, wearing a niqab would not be enough for the state authorities. She would not be allowed to leave her house without a male escort and she wouldn’t have spent a day in school. I'm betting most Muslims will see this appointment not as a bold move for religious tolerance, but another paternal pat on the head from Trudeau who is brazenly playing the identity politics game and hoping Muslims will vote Liberal.
But guess what, Muslims don’t owe Trudeau or the Liberal Party anything, don’t vote on single issues and have the same problems with the debt-ridden, LGBTQ-obsessed and censorship-happy Trudeau government as Christians, Jews and Wiccans.

Pierre is correct. Trudeau is dividing the country. Divide and conquer is the only tactic he has left.
Hopefully the East will soon wake up to the damages being done by the Liberals and the idiot they have put in power.
jihadi Justin making as much damage as possible before his losing the next election. 🥾🥔
This racist pandering position needs to be eliminated .When is enough going to be enough for regular everyday Canadians of whatever religion to say no more of these divisive hateful Liberals
Islamophobia -- the fear Islamists have of anything that is not Islamic!
Trudeau has made this appointment as it solidly follows the fuhrers plans to cause hatred and chaos. Dictators need both of these elements in their reign as it provides them with an excuse to slame more draconian laws on the people. It works as history has proven, time and time again. Until the union workers and the closed minded sheeple actually realize the tyrants destruction, Canada will keep descending into an oppressive regime, with a out of control lunatic and his puppet (ndp) bent on destroying.
Just one more step up for Islam, supported by this Eastern Dominated Liberal Government! God help Canada, if Canadians do not smarten up, and put an end to this destruction of everything this country once stood for!
Islamaphobia czar protects us from racism, problem is that she is a racist anti Canadian. Another wedge issue starting from the PMO. Every time I hear the term Islamophobia I like them less.
Perhaps it is more a gesture to search for both media support (CBC/Toronto Star where she (is) was involved) and a potential voter segment as a sort of 'two for one' arrangement.
There does appear to be a complete disregard for any form of concerning history or seemingly racist/religious etc intolerances on the part of appointees by the PM or PMO. Noted how there is never an objection by the NDP.
Note that minimal objective or even vaguely critical perspective of much of the msm/legacy media.
I have never heard of any Canadian fearing a Muslim or Islam.
Critical thinking and objective Canadians generally realize to fear a whole group of people for a religious affiliation is ludicrous. There are of course extremists in a creed, belief structure, ideology, etc. They are exactly that - extremists.
Major religions have an essential core of positive perspectives to society. They probably wish to obtain new members however the process is by acceptance. Practicing their beliefs may be viewed as different by some but that is their choice and realistically doesn't negatively affect others.
The problem: Those who for their own purposes create dissention, polarization and fear. Sounds a great deal more like self serving political parties and various msm/legacy media rather than most Canadians.
All Canadians should fear that ideology of hate. That is all it is, pure and simple. And it appears the Communists in power in Canada are bringing them in by the planeload anymore. The plot behind it is the same one behind "multiculturalism" and the the "diversity is our strength" mantra. Both of these constructs are communist tools to divide and conquer the country. Mao used class, in the western nations the weapon is race. The communists know Islam cannot coexist with any other ideology or system.
100% agreed.
Well said and you speak the truth.
Yeah cause these ignorant 95% of Canadians and might include you have never read up to what Islam actually stands for. If they had than they would realize what a vile oppressive ant-women "religion " it is and they would've never allowed a single muslim into the country.
Amen, just wait when a lot of them get into the service corporations called govts, they will introduce their sharia law..
What would you expect from a titanically stupid PM
Regardless of race or colour or religion if your not born in this country you have 0 right to be part of this government…….. these people are destroying this country fast and I’m sick of these new immigrants being put into the federal government it’s destroying Canada as we no it. If your a new immigrant to Canada and have children born here they would be legitimate person to join the government no if ands or buts
Check out The Voice of the Martyrs and see how diverse inclusive and equitable Islam is in other nations. God save Canada from the likes of this woman.
Fact: where muslims are in the minority, they demand minority rights. Where muslims are in the majority, there aren't any minority rights.
100% nailed it.
Exactly
Amen..Wait until they demand we use their sharia law..
Diversity - Inclusion - Equity: DIE as in DIE, CANADA. The end game of DIE is to destroy Canada.
Division, Intolerance, Exclusion, we should admit what it really is.
I stand with the women in Iran and Afghanistan; burn the hijabi.
I wonder what her salary and perks are??
EID = Equity Inclusion and Diversity Holidays Get IT?
I told you 2025 was too long to wait to get rid of this regime, that is hell bent on destroying the nation.
