Civic, community and political leaders expressed their united stand against religious extremism, which has the potential of reaching the safe shores of Canada.
Community leaders gathered at the Baitul Islam Mosque in Maple at a seminar organized by the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat to discuss the issue.
"Religious extremism has destroyed the social, economic and moral fabric of societies," said Lal Khan Malik, AMJ Canada President. "If unchecked, this extremist ideology will not remain limited to the third world."
Delegates noted the threat of home-grown terrorism in the West - including Canada - is very real, and urged concerted action against the forces of intolerance.
