[Tarek Fatah was attacked not so long ago by radical Islamists. They accused him of being an apostate (as if they had the authority to determine what his faith consisted in) and smashed his car in a thuggish attempt to silence him. In Canada this happened! Violent religious persecution.]
In the article, they say:
Muslims should realize that citizenship in Canada is not based on inherited race or religion, but on a set of common laws created by men and women whom we elect and send to Parliament. Those who wish to introduce laws based on divine texts should try living in Saudi Arabia and Iran before they force the rest of us to embrace their prescription.A very non-multiculturalist notion: common laws stemming from reasonable principles of democracy, rather than accepting all customs, no matter how extreme and poised against freedom.
