Trudeau Blames American Right Wing For Influencing Canadian Muslim Families When It Comes To 2sLGTQiA2sqGG

 

Last week JustinE Trudeau met with various muslim families at a school to address various issues within the muslim community. One issue that was increasing in topic was LGBT curriculum in public schools.

A parent asked that our PM please protect their values as muslims to which JustinE responded that he has heard this sentiment from the muslim community many times but wanted the parent, and all parents, to know that:

“there is an awful lot of misinformation and disinformation out there,” due to “people on social media, particularly fuelled by the American right wing… spreading a lot of untruths about what’s actually in the provincial curriculum.” 

“These are people in the far right who have consistently stood against Muslim rights and the Muslim community, but they’re weaponizing the issue of LGBT, which is something that, yes, Islam has strong opinions on, the same way that the religious right in Canada, the Christian right, has strong opinions against as well.”

While there is no doubt social media influences EVERYTHING, do you think it was wrong for a world leader to assume its own citizens were influenced by another country's extremists? JustinE made it clear to canadians time and time again that the muslim population in our country were not only worth representing but worth listening to. He also made clear that muslim extremists from other countries NEVER can represent that of a canadian muslim. So is this not just a contradiction?

Why does having your set faith now make you anti lgbt?

Extreme right wing and extreme left wing, it makes no difference as both extremes cannot bring balance to a community. Was Justin's comment and insult to Muslims not being able to think for themselves as canadians?
