Canada's foreign policy bureau has condemned the
implementation of sharia in Brunie. A tweet released this morning stated
"Canada is deeply concerned with #Brunei’s decision to
punish members of the #LGBTQ2 community under its new penal
code. Canada supports #humanrights for all and will always
oppose the #deathpenalty."
It is encouraging to hear that Canada has taken a stand in
this particular instance. Do they take the same stand against Imams in
Canada that preach against the LGBTQ community?
At an April 1996
conference, Canadian imam Zafar Bangash was criticizing the
West for being "proud of being homosexuals," and saying: "It
is time for us to pick up the stones to stone these people to death for
[this] abomination... Allah imposes [this responsibility] upon us."
The Islamic party of Ontario leader Jawed Anwar posted
an article about
the death penalty in Islam for the LGBTQ community. Will the Canadian
government act on this?
Many Canadian Imams have spoken out against the LGBTQ
lifestyle, some even stating that the punishment for this is death.
Does our government act on this?
