Silence is the mother of truth. ~Benjamin Disraeli

Between the ugly, thunderous & violent roar of the radical extremists and the wishy washy whimper of the majority, lies THE SILENT VOICE.

Come and hear this voice at the launch of The Council For Muslims Facing Tomorrow

Our Mission: Whereas in the contemporary world the values of individual freedom, human rights and gender equality, science and democracy are cherished universal ideals, yet Muslims and non-Muslim minorities espousing these ideals in countries that are member states of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation face abuse, persecution, and violence; and whereas Muslims and people of all other faith traditions need to come together in opposing bigotry in the name of religion; therefore our Mission is to nurture harmonious coexistence among people of all faith traditions, to supporting open and free intellectual discourse about our history beset with problems that need to be publicly discussed, to celebrating as Canadians our cultural diversity in all of its aspects and keeping Canada safe.

Keynote Speaker:

M. Zuhdi Jasser, M.D. is the Founder and President of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy (AIFD). A devout Muslim, Dr. Jasser founded AIFD in the wake of the 9/11 attacks on the United States as an effort to provide an American Muslim voice advocating for the preservation of the founding principles of the United States Constitution, liberty and freedom, through the separation of mosque and state. Dr. Jasser is a first generation American Muslim whose parents fled the oppressive Baath regime of Syria in the mid-1960’s for American freedom. Today, he is leading the fight for moderate Muslims who love their faith while embracing American principles and rejecting the hold that Islamist organizations have over American Muslims. Dr. Jasser is the author of The Battle for the Soul of Islam: An American Muslim Patriot’s Fight to Save His Faith (Simon & Schuster, June 2012). He is featured in four documentaries America at Risk, Islam v Islamists, A Question of Honor and The Third Jihad. www.aifdemocracy.org
