Canadian Muslims Trying to Muzzle Steyn
Posted on December 2, 2007
We read:
“The Canadian Islamic Congress-Canada’s largest non-profit Islamic body-has launched two human rights complaints against Maclean’s and its editor-in-chief, Kenneth Whyte. The complaints’ subject is “The Future Belongs to Islam,” an excerpt from Mark Steyn’s book “America Alone: The End of the World as We Know It,” which appeared in the magazine’s Oct. 23, 2006, issue.
Complaints were submitted to Human Rights Commissions in B.C. and Ontario on the grounds that “the article subjects Canadian Muslims to hatred and contempt,” according to a CIC press release. In the release, the CIC labels Steyn’s article as “flagrantly Islamophobic.”
