Hamilton imams are optimistic after meeting with prime minister
Canadians can t rely on the government to combat hate crime, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said at Hamilton Mountain Mosque on Monday morning. Ordinary citizens have to play their part too.Â
Trudeau condemned recent displays of Islamophobia, including the death of a London family and an alleged attack on two Hamilton Muslim women by a person in a truck. Those incidents were
