(Jerusalem Post) A radical Islamic group’s Canadian conference for the establishment of a caliphate across much of Europe, Africa and the Middle East will be held online Sunday, after restrictions and pressure from local politicians led to the physical event’s cancellation.
Hizb ut Tahrir Canada announced on Instagram Saturday that it would hold the 2025 Khilafah Conference online with the opportunity to engage with speakers through a question and answer period.
Bnai Brith Canada responded to the move on Wednesday, demanding that Canada join 13 other states in banning them by listing them as a terrorist entity.
“Hizb ut-Tahrir openly rejects democracy, calls for the establishment of a global Islamic caliphate under Sharia law, glorifies terrorism, promotes hate, vilifies the LGBTQ+ community, and seeks to dismantle Canada’s national sovereignty.”
