Islamophobia Studies Journal | Fall 2022, Volume 7, Issue 2

Islamophobia in Canada has reached deadly proportions. In recent years the country has been rocked by two unprecedented attacks against Muslims. The first took place at the Centre Culturel Islamique de Québec in Quebec City on January 29, 2017, killing six men after evening prayers. The second attack came four years later, on June 6, 2021, in London, Ontario, where four members of a Canadian Pakistani Muslim family were intentionally mowed down by a truck and killed. Both deadly attacks took place at the hands of White nationalists. Adding to the death toll, in 2020, a caretaker at a Toronto area mosque was stabbed to death by a man linked to a neo-Nazi death cult.
