bill: His photo can be seen only a few pages after an article co-authored by two Waterloo engineering students about the Anti-Terrorism Act, 2015 formerly Bill C-51 . This is noteworthy because Bill C-51 would subsequently be used to facilitate Mohamed prosecution, according to Rabble. The Iron Warrior article focused on the student experience, discussing the effects of Bill C-51 on campus and the possibility of engineering students being recruited by the Canadian Security Intelligence Service CSIS . It speculated that those same students might be used to spy on Muslim students in the same faculty. One of the only publicly available photographs of the 23-year-old facing terrorism-related charges appeared in the February 2015 edition of Iron Warrior, a magazine published by the University of Waterloo engineering faculty. In a strange coincidence, when the article was published Mohamed was already under investigation for his sympathies to a listed terrorist entity. A year after the article was published Mohamed was arrested on a weapons charge. The premise of the article was correct students and specifically racialized students have both the most to lose from Bill C-51 and the greatest role to play in defeating it.

Tamara Ramusovic and her family came to Canada as refugees when she was nine, in 1995, partly because her father Muslim background put them at risk back home.

The attacks on various communities including refugees and immigrants felt very personal in nature, Ramusovic said. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
