The Muslim Question in Canada
A Story of Segmented Integration
By
Abdolmohammad Kazemipur
"Kazemipur explores how Muslims are integrating, or not, in regards to such things as employment, voting, trust, women's equality, ethnic enclaves, religiosity and their attachment to Canada. One reality confirmed by Kazemipur, who immigrated to Canada from Iran two decades ago, is that Muslims do, indeed, worry about Western Muslims become radicalized and disturbing the peace. Their anxiety connects not only to 9/11 and the train bombings in London and Madrid, but to the recent killings in Ottawa and Quebec and the 2006 arrest in Toronto of 18 terrorist suspects, many of whom were second-generation immigrants."
