You've likely heard about the recent spike in hate crimes against Muslims in Canada - I'm certain you remember the violent attack on a Muslim family in London, Ontario in last month - and today's episode is questioning where and when Islamophobia in Canada started picking up traction.

We're thrilled to have Mohammed Hashim join us for the conversation! Mohammed is the Executive Director of the Canadian Race Relations Foundation. Read more about him HERE.

**TW: This episode discusses the recent violent attacks and deaths of Muslim Canadians in acts of domestic terrorism so listener discretion is advised.
