On the heels of his latest apology Justin Trudeau is about to step in it again. On December 22 he is addressing the Reviving the Islamic Spirit get-together in Toronto. Sounds quite inclusive on the face of it, but when you look at the sponsors and co-speakers at the event, another word comes to mind - NUTS.
RIS is sponsored by Islamic Relief Canada, the Canadian branch of Islamic Relief, a UK-based charity. Amongst all the good works carried out by Islamic Relief is a serious belief that they are also a front for Islamic fundamentalism and funders of Hamas, a group on Canada's terrorist list. In November 2012 the Swiss bank UBS closed Islamic Relief accounts and blocked donations (called zakat) to IR due to "counter terrorism" concerns.
On a hidden page (and I mean you have to know that it is there to see it - www.islamicreliefcanada.org/?p=1596) on the IRC website there is a list of who benefits from Zakat. Line item 3 refers to the people who collect and distribute it - the administrative overhead; and line item 7 refers to "Those struggling in the path of Allah." That is what is used to describe Jihadists.
I encourage everyone to check out www.pointedebasculecanada.com, educate themselves on the IRC, then contact Trudeau's campaign to warn him off the visit.
While you are at it, ask co-speaker John Ralston Sauls, what part of Sharia Law he wants for Canadians. Many senior members of Islamic Relief Canada tried to get it on the books in Ontario a few years back.
