We are horrified by the shooting today at Bondi Beach, taking the lives of 11 innocent souls. To the Canadian Jewish community, know that like the Muslim grocer in Australia who reportedly intervened to take down the gunman in this horrifying terrorist attack, we stand with you…

Today, Director Dan Rogers met with the @nccm CEO Stephen Brown to discuss shared interests in combating Islamophobia and keeping Muslims in Canada safe. We continue to work together to fight Islamophobia, and all forms of violent extremism.
