That the Nation of Islam is considered a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center should not be a matter of concern to anyone. But the Nation does “have a documented history of antisemitic rhetoric including Holocaust denial, exaggerating the role of Jews in the slave trade and hateful conspiracy theories about Jewish control of the economy.”
This guidebook also includes “the suggestion that the Muslim greeting ‘As-salamu alaykum’ (peace be upon you) be explained and recited alongside the singing of O Canada, inviting children to visit a local mosque and including templates of famous mosques around the world for children to construct during cut and paste exercises.”
Meanwhile, “the TDSB does celebrate heritage months for the Jewish and Sikh faiths, but there are no guidebooks. There is no such month for the Christian faith.”

As always, Islam is paramount and central, supreme over all other faiths, just as sharia would have it.
“Simon Wiesenthal Center calls on TDSB to pull Islamic guide,” by Anthony Furey, Toronto Sun, October 4, 2017 (thanks to Mark):
The Toronto District School Board’s controversial Islamic Heritage Month guidebook is facing criticism from yet another prominent advocacy organization, this time the Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center for Holocaust Studies (FSWC).
While the organization is urging the TDSB pull the whole guide pending a full review of all its contents, they’ve focused their complaint on one section in the guide that promotes the Nation of Islam.
“The Nation of Islam is considered to be a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center and Nation of Islam officials have a documented history of antisemitic rhetoric including Holocaust denial, exaggerating the role of Jews in the slave trade and hateful conspiracy theories about Jewish control of the economy,” writes the FSWC, led by CEO Avi Benlolo, in a press release….
The TDSB did not immediately offer comment to the Sun on this issue. However, TDSB trustee chair Robin Pilkey previously chastised Jewish advocacy group B’nai Brith Canada for what she labelled in a letter were their “outrageous” concerns about the guidebook.
B’nai Brith’s complaint – sent to the board on Monday – focused on the broad definition of Islamophobia the guide used, one that claimed criticism and dislike of political Islam was wrong and violated the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
They argued it would lead to TDSB community members fearing censure if they criticized controversial issues within the Islamic world, such as LGBT rights within Muslim-majority countries.
While the board temporarily took the guidebook offline to add a more toned down definition of Islamophobia, the guide’s other troubling recommendations remain.
These include the suggestion that the Muslim greeting “As-salamu alaykum” (peace be upon you) be explained and recited alongside the singing of O Canada, inviting children to visit a local mosque and including templates of famous mosques around the world for children to construct during cut and paste exercises….
The TDSB does celebrate heritage months for the Jewish and Sikh faiths, but there are no guidebooks. There is no such month for the Christian faith.

Left/Liberal pro-jihadi loons vote for their equally dumb “leaders” so they should enjoy the diversity they get.
But we must thank the Airlines that decided to comply with the jihadi’s wishes http://tinyurl.com/y782l6r8

There is no stupid like toronto stupid, it rivals caliphornia for total stupidity. As Ontario goes deeper into poverty through liberal taxation policies, it becomes more like bangladesh, a self destructive mass of seething muslims who are slowly destroying themselves and the province.

Completely agree regarding Toronto. Don’t worry, Mahou, for stupidity and dishonesty the Peel Region School Board in Mississauga is close behind that of Toronto, but as a city Toronto’s citizens possess a very special ‘dumbness’ – while simultaneously considering their city the centre of the universe. Meanwhile crime soars, more stabbings overnight by those supported by the Black Lives Matter mob of racist imbeciles.

This is all going according to the plan (shiny pony) Turdeau has for CANADA.

Islam can never be a true “nation” — it is far too deeply divided from within, between the Sunnis and Shi’ites, between the Arabs, Turks, Iranians and Pakistanis all vying for power and influence, between hundreds of different interpretations over the Quran and Hadiths. They will never be united, no matter how much they try to be.

“So before I was nine I had learned the basic canon of Arab life. It was
me against my brother; me and my brother against our father; my family
against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe; and the
tribe against the world. And all of us against the infidel.”

To criticise Islam violates the charter of rights and freedoms? Have I already lost my right to free speech and to free thought? If we are this far along, perhaps it is time for civil disobedience in Kanadastan? Perhaps we should have a better look at our southern neighbour, particularly the first and second amendments to their constitution.

Here’s a page from shari’a they can include in their demonic guidebook.
• A Muslim will not be subject to retaliation (prosecution) if he kills an apostate, since it is someone who deserves to die.
• Parents and grandparents will not be prosecuted for killing their offspring or offspring’s offspring. This law is significant to getting those who honor kill off the hook.
• A Muslim will not be executed for killing a kaffir (non-Muslim).
• It is obligatory for a Muslim to lie if the purpose is obligatory, such as fulfilling Allah’s commandments of jihad.
• Slander and exaggeration is allowed if the purpose is lawful. No guilt or shame should be associated with slander of the perceived enemy, and if it is for protecting Islam and for the benefit of Muslims.
• Sharia has no respect for sovereignty of other nations and non-Muslims, because of the doctrine of jihad, defined as “to war against non-Muslims to establish the religion.”
• It is a capital (enormity) crime for any Muslim who chooses to “Not perform jihad or flee from combat with (kaffir) unbelievers.”
• It is the duty of every Muslim head of state (Caliph) to wage jihadist wars against non-Muslim nations, especially neighboring ones. Muslim Caliphs who refuse jihad are in violation of Sharia and unfit to rule.
• A Caliph could hold office through seizure of power meaning through force.
• A Caliph is immune (Maasum), exempt, from charges of murder, adultery, robbery, theft, drinking, and in some cases of rape.
• A manmade government (legal system), such as democracy, is an abomination and must be eliminated.
• A percentage of Zakat (alms) must go towards jihad.
• It is obligatory to obey the commands of the Caliph even if he is unjust.
• A caliph must be Muslim, not a slave, and male.
• The Muslim public must remove the Caliph if he rejects Islam or refuses to rule by Sharia.
• A non-Muslim cannot inherit from a Muslim.
• No testimony in court is acceptable from people of low-level jobs, such as street sweepers or bathhouse attendants. Women in low-level jobs are not awarded custody of children in case of divorce.
• A non-Muslim cannot rule, even over a non-Muslim minority.
• Homosexuality is punishable by death.
• Women are forbidden from becoming president or judge.
• There is no age limit for marriage of girls. The marriage contract at any age after birth and consummation of marriage at age 8 or 9.
• A husband has the right to beat his wife and does not have to say why to her family or police.
• Rebelliousness on the part of the wife nullifies the husband’s obligation to support her, gives him permission to beat her and keep her from leaving the home.
• Divorce is only in the hands of the husband and is as easy as saying: “I divorce you,” and is effective even if the husband says he did not intend it.
• A wife has no right to divorce her husband, even if he is polygamous, with additional wives.
• A man is allowed to have sex with slave women and women captured in battle, and if the enslaved woman is married, her marriage is annulled.
• There is no community property between a husband and his wife/wives.
• A woman inherits half what a man inherits.
• Parents have the legal right to perform female genital mutilation on minor daughters.
• A man must pay the woman dowry to be given in exchange for his right to her sexual organs.
• A rapist may only be required to pay money (dowry) without marrying the rape victim.
• A man is allowed to have sex with slave women and women captured in battle, and if the enslaved woman is married her marriage is annulled.
• A woman’s testimony in court is half the value of a man.
• A woman loses custody of her children if she remarries.
• To prove rape a woman must have four male witnesses.
• A woman must cover every inch of her body, which is considered awrah (a sexual organ). Exposing face is allowed by most, but not all Sharia schools.
• A Muslim man will not be prosecuted if he kills his wife if caught in the act of adultery. However, the opposite is not true since husband “could be married to the woman he was caught with.” Thus loyalty is only expected from wife, and not the husband.
• Free speech is unprotected and harshly punished if it involves any criticism of Muhammad, Islam or Sharia itself. Both Muslim and non-Muslim critics of Muhammad will be executed even if they repent.
• The banking system must be Sharia-compliant.
• A government must rule by Sharia and a Muslim head of state.

Farrakhan (spit) famously stated Judaism is a “gutter faith”.
