Green Square campaign Day Quebec. 29th of January is the official grief & mourning Islamophobia day to remember the Quebec City mosque attack. It seems this national day will be used as a launching point to pressure the Canadian federal government to pass legislative Action Against Islamophobia and to pass legislation, tabled by the NDP, the London Family Act.
NCCM (National Council of Canadian Muslims) has tabled a list of demands contained in the London Family Act. The demands are:
- Education Reform: Removing Islamophobic content.
- White Supremacy: Prevent white supremacist groups incorporating.
- Hate Crime Unit: Allocate considerable funding.
- Anti-Racism: Funding councils to combat negative attitudes.
- Minority Recruitment: Regulate minority representation.
- Human Rights Complaints: Increase accessibility and aid for those making complaints.
