Dedicated prayer rooms at public schools in Canada and it gets worse..

“Someone’s faith is part of who they are. Accommodating them brings understanding and shows we respect them,” said public school trustee Cindy Watson.

Umm, no. Not even close. You are caving in to a political ideology that is hell bent on forcing the rest of us to bow to to their idea of 'religion' and demanding that we meet every one of their requests. If we do not they sue us at every turn. This is stealth jihad and with every attack on our freedom muslims become more bold and confident. So does this mean there will be special prayer rooms for ALL religions?

Will all religious requirements now be taken into account? No meat on Fridays, more kosher food, more halal food, and where does this stop?

"Under a provincewide policy, school boards must be more inclusive and accommodate different faiths during the school day. All faiths? Why any faiths and why does religion belong in or at school in the first place. Maybe at a private religious school.

This could mean a private place for Muslim students who pray five times a day and for students who are fasting, a modified gym class and a separate room for them so they don’t have to watch their peers eat lunch."

Read the rest below and this is from Creeping Sharia.

Dedicated prayer rooms for Muslims at Canadian public schools

WATERLOO REGION — Walk through the wooden door into the secluded, carpeted room with holy books and prayer mats, and it’s hard to believe you’re in a school.

But this is the beginning of a new phase for public and Catholic schools where prayer rooms could become commonplace.

Under a provincewide policy, school boards must be more inclusive and accommodate different faiths during the school day.

This could mean a private place for Muslim students who pray five times a day and for students who are fasting, a modified gym class and a separate room for them so they don’t have to watch their peers eat lunch.

Atieh Noori, a 27-year-old Muslim student at St. Louis Adult Learning and Continuing Education Centre in downtown Kitchener, uses the prayer room each day at lunchtime to say her midday prayers.

After school, Noori doesn’t have time for prayer so she appreciates the space.

A 27-year old student? Who clearly isn’t as dedicated to Islam as she’d like some to think. If you don’t have time it obviously ain’t that important. But rather than making a personal sacrifice, Muslims like Noori want everyone else to accommodate their Islamic habits.

The newly adopted faith and accommodation policy states that each student has a right to follow his or her beliefs free from discrimination or harassment. Areas of reasonable accommodation include observance of major religious holy days and celebrations, prayers and rituals, dietary requirements and fasting, religious attire and participation in school curriculum and extracurricular activities.

“Someone’s faith is part of who they are. Accommodating them brings understanding and shows we respect them,” said public school trustee Cindy Watson.

“When you create a policy, it already reflects what you are doing,” he said.

Indeed. What you are doing is Islamizing by submitting to an intolerant ideology. Much more dhimmitude via TheRecord – Dedicated prayer rooms may be part of new approach by province’s schools….h/t @dhummi

Blazing Cat Fur highlights the severity of the problem in Canada noting the Canadian Human Rights Commission and the Muslim Brotherhood are both adherents of the right of ”Hisbah” under Sharia law:

Hisbah: Allows a private citizen to prosecute any individual who commits an act he considers a breach of the Sharia even if the plaintiff himself has not been personally injured by such an act.
