The most prominent Islamic conference in the Western world, Reviving the Islamic Spirit features dozens of politically-oriented speeches from Muslim clerics and activists. The event is taking place in Canada on Boxing Day, December 26th, 2021.
This year, it also includes two Canadian federal party leaders: Jagmeet Singh, the head of the NDP Party and Erin O’Toole, leader of Canada’s Conservative Party.
According to journalist J.M. Phelps, speakers include New York-based Siraj Wahhaj, “listed as a potential unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.”
“The Imam’s views on women, homosexuals have often led counter-extremism analysts to refer to Wahhaj as one of the most extreme preachers in North America.”
Why are Jagmeet Singh and Erin O’Toole scheduled to speak along with fourteen religious fundamentalists?
The answer is altogether trite: because this is Canada. Within our parameters, political competition for the “new arrival” vote is fierce. Previous to the 2015 federal election, Justin Trudeau set the pace with a coast-to-coast tour of Canadian mosques. He also spoke at a Reviving The Islamic Spirit conference.
In 2021, Jagmeet Singh and Erin O’Toole are playing catch-up. Canada’s Muslim community become a cherished voter segment for political parties.
Statistics Canada informs us that less than 4% of our demographic are Muslim-Canadians. Why then would federal party leaders jump all over this? One idea is that the 4% are headed for 14%— and well beyond. The Conservatives and NDP are aiming to jump on the expansion early in the game. At present, 3rd World migrant vote-chasing is top priority.
The Sunday sessions begins with speech from Shaykh Yahya Rhodus. In 2004, who reportedly refused to denounce Osama bin Laden, claiming it was “a little bit offensive for us to talk bad about someone behind their back.”
“That the leaders of Canada’s official opposition should so willingly attend such an event alongside such extreme voices is extraordinary.”
The event would be far more extraordinary if Canadians knew about it. A Google search delivers not a single article acknowledging the conference. Why not? What is it about this event which motivates CBC, CTV, Globe & Mail and Toronto Star to hide away its existence?
Immigration policy finds the Muslim community growing at an exponential rate. It’s beginnings coincide with the election of Justin Trudeau. After six years of political pandering, O’Toole and Singh are now banging at the door of Trudeau’s “woke” marketing agenda.
What does this tell us about Canada’s future? For starters, everything that legacy media are not telling us. Political investment does not occur in random fashion. It happens because politicians know that a significant pay-off is to be had.
Ironic it is that the advent of Islam in Canada is surrounded with perceptions of a persecuted community. How can a rise to prominence and systemic oppression occur simultaneously?
Quick answer: because it can. Jagmeet Singh wants the Muslim vote so badly that he is willing to share the stage with religious extremists. Erin O’Toole thinks he is going to beat the Liberals by emulating the Liberals. It will never happen.
We have here a re-orientation of political priority taking place before our eyes. Thus it is that informed Canadians witness a fundamental shift in society.
Or would witness it– if a media agenda to bury it from public awareness didn’t exist.
O’Toole could convert to Islam–Give himself a Muslim name–Make a pilgrimage to Mecca–And the Trudeau Media wouldn’t report a word of it.
Not that I care; spineless O’Toole is long overdue to get the boot. Never mind the Con; Cons–Become a truly Conservative Party again.
Well,I have a lot of words to say but I digress.Just imagine the VERY WORST!What a bunch of losers!
Many years ago I read Efraim Karsh’s book, Islamic Imperialism.
The single biggest takeaway for me is that Islamic expansion in the West could not have happened without the active collusion of political and non-muslim religious leaders.
All three Party leaders are deeply offensive and are seen as groveling panderers. They clearly support Islamic terrorism and terrorists, and they don’t care.
Western Autonomy cannot come soon enough. Support Maverick / Wexit.
Pretty soon we will be eating and/or living on halal/kosher certified goods and services. And it’s mind baffling that the pork industry (as an example) in this country are allowing religious extremists to affect their business profits without any protest/lobby. One should know that halal/kosher require people of that particular faith only to be employed in the supply chain for a good or service to be certified (for example abattoir). In other words, if you are not a muslim or a jew or are an atheist, you will never be able to work in such industries. You will never be able to help/promote local or global pork industry. This is open discrimination and monopoly of goods/service in the name of religion and not ethical or personal reason as such. I am better off in the original swamp that I came from as the lake that I am in right now is a bigger one and soon to be a swamp as well. Cheers.
