    Michael Coren Retweeted Tarek Fatah

    But Tarek, the founder has only around 100 Twitter followers and most of them are bots or conservative activists. The video that purports to be in support of this "party" is actually a fraud made by the anti-Muslim extremist Eric Brazeau.https://twitter.com/TarekFatah/status/1080613498516848641 …

    How does Canadian heritage square with the @IslamicOntario Party claim that "Islam is the native religion of Canada"? Frank @fpVaughanIII discusses the claim in his podcast. https://youtu.be/Klr6HV8155M

        I appreciate where I think you are coming from. I do have a great deal of respect for you Mr. Coren. My sarcasm was to highlight that both of them have pushed fake news narratives over high profile cases in the last year. Both of which have fired up the far right outrage machine

        Thanks for this. I honestly don't keep up with all this, and hate some of the malice on Twitter. I'm very careful not to include people's family members, and still regard Tarek as a friend. I just wish he was more selective in his statements.

        👍 I've just read more of your recent timeline and can certainly see that. I hardly ever agreed with most of your earlier work. Having followed you for a bit, your tweets appear quite sincere and well thought out. Keep up your good work. You're a good person. It shows.

        Thank you @michaelcoren for letting loose your new Sharia Bolshevik friends. You haven’t suffered a day under Islamism, but seem comfortable standing up for them as they issue death threats.

        It is indeed a shame. But I am not fighting anybody. I merely pointed out that the #IslamicPartyOfOntario is not serious and not a threat. Tarek should use his energies and talents elsewhere. I really do wish him well.

        I think it's real but tiny and irrelevant, and the usual right-wing types have made it seem much bigger and more dangerous.

        I agree and everytime we respond to these wack jobs we give them a platform as they may only have 100 followers but when we respond they get access to our followers

        .... which whack jobs are you referring too? The angry religious nuts or the angry right wing nuts? Either way ... we sadly make them relevant whenever we talk about them and it would be nice if they just faded into obscurity.

        She is a registered Ontario Tory lobbyist who does outreach to cultural communities. I think Tories have at least encouraged this party to complain about it. It feels like a manufactured issue.https://news.vice.com/en_ca/article/qvzznq/conservative-party-leadership-advisor-helped-create-anti-islam-organization …

        Yep, read it already. It is as retrogressive as the also fringe Canadian Heritage Alliance. The Islamic Party of Ontario will struggle to get the necessary signatures to register as a party, never mind fielding candidates or winning more than a few dozen votes.

        Is it going to be a party? Or is this something Tories manipulated Anwar into doing to create something to rail against to raise support and money then fake a victory over? What about Georgeanne Burke, the fake Eric Brazeau video, all the bots?

        I don't think the party is a hoax as such but I do think that people on the right have tried to give it a profile that is certainly doesn't merit. Hysteria and manipulation rather than direct dishonesty. But I could be wrong.
