Today marks the seventh anniversary of the Quebec City terror attack that left six people dead and shattered their community.

Hatred devastates, and there must be no place for it here. The othering of any group demeans and hurts us all.

Islamophobia is a problem across Canada and beyond.

Politicians trying to divide Canadians on the anniversary of the Quebec City Mosque massacre is beyond disappointing.

Thank you Jagmeet Singh for focusing on the need for unity to fight against hate,

And for not using the occasion to divide people.

At the commemoration at the Quebec City mosque,

We were reminded of the strength and beauty of our communities and the steadfast hope in a future without Islamophobia.

Perhaps the most striking moment of the night was the deeply moving remarks of Aymen Derbali.

Aymen was there that night when the gunman opened fire on the congregation.

He took several bullets in an attempt to save other worshippers.
