Statement by the Prime Minister on the Fire That Took Place at the Mosque in Peterborough
(firmenpresse) - OTTAWA, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 11/16/15 -- The Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, issued the following statement today on the fire that took place at the mosque in Peterborough:
"I am deeply disturbed by the fire that took place at the Kawartha Muslim Religious Association''s mosque in Peterborough on November 14, 2015.
"The values that make our country great are values that celebrate our diversity and our religious tolerance. Canada is a country that is strong, not in spite of our differences, but because of them. Muslim-Canadians contribute enormously to the social and economic fabric of our nation, and Canadian authorities will not abide innocent and peaceful citizens being targeted by acts of vandalism and intolerance.
"The recent terrorist attacks in Paris have shocked peace-loving people in all countries around the world. We must remain focused on those responsible for the atrocities committed in France. It is equally important for Canadians to understand that Muslims around the world are also being persecuted regularly by these violent extremists. We are in this together.
"To the families who attend the mosque for prayer every week, the Government of Canada and our law enforcement agencies will protect your rights and make every effort to apprehend any perpetrator. I hope your mosque will be open for prayer again very soon."
