Day of Remembrance and Action on Islamophobia at Queen's Park
Date and time
Description
On January 29, 2017, a gunman entered the Centre Culturel Islamique de Quebec and attacked worshippers gathered there for evening prayers.
This senseless act of hate changed numerous lives forever. Six men lost their lives, and many were injured. This event has also impacted the experiences of Muslim communities across Canada.
On the second anniversary of this attack, please join DawaNet and the Muslim Youth Fellowship, as well as community members, allies, and elected representatives as we commemorate the lives lost and commit to tackling Islamophobia in our cities and our province.
This is a multi-party event. Leader of the Official Opposition Andrea Horwath and Toronto Mayor John Tory will be in attendance at the Reception, along with other key elected officials.
Please note that tickets for the Film Screening and Reception must be booked separately and the name of each attendee for orders of multiple tickets must be included. Space is limited.
