Alter school curriculum to reflect the Muslim perspective of the crusades and the conquest of Constantinople. Canadians need to uphold NCCM as a champion of human rights, Bring about the normalization of the wearing of the hijab and niqab.
The following is taken from National Council of Canadian Muslims web site. NCCM is formally known as CAIR Canada. It was the Canadian arm of the American organization CAIR. It was accused of Muslim terrorist activities. On July 6, 2013, CAIR-CAN issued a press release. It announced that the organization will now be known as the National Council of Canadian Muslims.

Justin Trudeau on numerous occasions has remined Canadians of how the Muslim community is contributing to the future of Canada. Justin Trudeau also reminds Canadians that Islam is compatible with democracy. However this is contrary to what some leading influential Imams and Muslim scholars say.

Canada London Family Act will usher in the systemic dismantling of the Western Christian ethos. It will be replaced with a ethos that is biased for everything that is not European, Western or Christian. Ex: The Crusades will be taught from the Islamic perspective. This subject has no middle ground. According to Muslim scholars it was the Muslims who were the aggressors. Acknowledging this fact will make Muslim students uncomfortable? London Family Act seems to state that soothing the sensibilities of Muslims is a primary objective of the Ontario government and Canadian society.

On Monday morning, October 7, 2019 the
Prince Edward Viaduct in Toronto, a major traffic artery, was
blocked for several hours by protesters affiliated with Extinction
Rebellion Toronto advocating a “Global Rebellion” to save the
planet.
Extinction Rebellion Toronto states
it is the “Toronto chapter of Extinction Rebellion which is focused
on non-violent direct action and civil disobedience for action on the
climate crisis and biodiversity loss.”
Extinction Rebellion Toronto presents
its demands from the Canadian government: “Tell the Truth about our
climate crisis; Make plans to bring us to net-zero CO2 emissions by
2025; Create an equitable People’s Assembly to oversee the transition
to a low-emissions world.”
Extinction Rebellion Toronto has
also political and social long-term goals “to spark and sustain a
spirit of creative rebellion, which will enable much needed changes
in our political, economic and social landscape.”
According
to Extinction Rebellion Toronto, “We endeavour to mobilize and
train organisers to skillfully open up space, so that communities can
develop the tools they need to address our deeply rooted problems. We
work to transform our society into one that is compassionate,
inclusive, sustainable, equitable and connected.”
