A planned event by Hizb ut-Tahrir in Ontario has sparked widespread concern due to the extremist ideology of this organization and its potential to incite division.

Hizb ut-Tahrir, which advocates for the establishment of a global Islamic Caliphate, has been banned in several countries, including the United Kingdom and Germany, for promoting antisemitism and advocating violence against Israel and Jews. The upcoming conference, titled “The Khilafah: Eliminating the Obstacles that are Delaying its Return,” raises serious alarms about the group’s dangerous rhetoric and its incompatibility with Canada’s values of democracy, inclusion, and public safety.
