Senator Salma Ataullahjan outlines the three priorities she says she’d like to see the government take to confront Islamophobia in Canada. That is – appointing a special representative on combating Islamophobia at the federal level, bringing anti-racism training into classrooms across the country, and defining what Islamophobia really means. 

This is a clip from rabble’s most recent live politics panel: ‘Off the Hill: Confronting Islamophobia in Canada.’ The panel featured guests Senator Salma Ataullahjan, Monia Mazigh, Nuzhat Jafri, and Karl Nerenberg. Co-hosted by Robin Browne and Libby Davies.
