On December 2, the Liberal candidate for Mississauga-Erindale, Omar Alghabra, made his victory speech after winning the nomination. In that speech, he reportedly exhorted his audience, "This is a victory for Islam! Islam won! Islam Won! ... Islamic power is extending into Canadian politics".
Alghabra's victory speech was delivered to an audience of several hundred in the Coptic Christian Centre of the Church of the Virgin Mary and St. Athanasius in Mississauga.
David Ragheb, a member of the congregation, reported that following Alghabra's victory speech, Markham Councillor Khalid Osman took to the stage and declared, "We have the east, we have the west, and now we have Mississauga!" to cheers and applause from the audience. Ragheb also reported that Rogers Cable was present throughout and may have filmed the event. "A member of parliament is supposed to represent my concerns about taxes and roads in Mississauga, not promote an Islamic agenda," said Ragheb.
Victor Fouad, a Coptic Christian, was disturbed to hear of such Islamist rhetoric from a Liberal who could easily become a Canadian parliamentarian. Mr. Fouad assumed that Paul Martin would likewise disapprove of such incitement by a Liberal candidate, and so wrote to the Prime Minister detailing what had happened. That message was ignored. The event took place over 2 weeks ago, and Paul Martin's silence since that time can only be interpreted as approval of Mr. Alghabra's rhetoric.

Oh, dear.
We may be building that fence along the Canadian border after all.
The first step toward the Islamic Republic of Canuckistan.
Canada has an unfortunate history of allowing moonbats to sieze nominations through special-interest bloc politics. Hopefully he won't actually win the seat.
Dear God, that is chilling!
Canada is becoming a very wacky country and I really wonder what it's going to take to wake them up.
Moron.
not good
Didn't Martin just let in a bunch of (Muslim?) immigrants recently? Pandering to stay in office, in addition to keeping them on the dole?
"Canada is becoming a very wacky country and I really wonder what it's going to take to wake them up."
I think the seeming smugness will fade rapidly, when they're hit with a large scale terrorist attack. Not if, when.
great, gay people get to get married, and now a muslim wants power in Canada. Just great. Cheesies H. Puffs!
Lots of terrorist types running around north of the border, and I am willing to bet this one is in with them up to his neck.
After fleeing half way across the world to escape Muslim persecution in their native Egypt I bet the Copts were thrilled to hear it had followed them to Canada.
...too late, bud!!!
No wonder they call it Canaduh....
When I lived in Mississauga during the seventies, it was an upper middle class suburb. I hear the minorities have taken it over now and run it into the ground. This news confirms it.
Canada: The Land that even the French would NOT surrender to.
"A member of parliament is supposed to represent my concerns about taxes and roads in Mississauga, not promote an Islamic agenda"
It does sound sort of snivelling and clueless in this context, doesn't it?
