CJPME is deeply concerned about the widespread racism that has ensued following Prime Minister Carney's announcement of a new Ministerial Advisory Council on Rights, Equality, and Inclusion. We condemn the attacks on former Minister Omar Alghabra, who is facing smears from extremist pro-Israel voices, including Israeli news outlets, who are attacking his Muslim faith and Arab background, and demonizing his support for Palestinian rights. These attacks demonstrate the intertwined use of Islamophobia, anti-Arab racism, and anti-Palestinian racism, and are attempts to exclude Arab and Muslim voices from national conversations on racism and hate. These attacks must be firmly rejected by Prime Minister Carney and Minister Miller.
