Prime Minister of Canada and United Church

Quebecois: For a while, the spectre of terrorism and the niqab controversy gained him support at the polls, as many Canadians and Quebecois embraced the Conservative anti-Muslim message, according to Rabble. Fortunately, many others spoke out to challenge this dangerous ploy. The former Prime Minister of Canada spent months deliberately stirring up prejudice against a group of Canadians for one reason only: political advantage. From opposition politicians to the United Church and the labour movement, voices were raised to condemn the attempt to divide people by race or religion. It true that some long-time Conservative voters were troubled by the deluge of mean-spirited actions they could no longer support. But many others stayed discreetly silent -- and we need to have an honest, perhaps difficult, conversation about that silence. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
