Trudeau Wishes Muslims Happy Eid al Adha

Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau congratulated Muslims in Canada and around the world on the occasion of Eid Al-Adha.

“Tomorrow, Muslims across Canada and around the world celebrate Eid al-Adha, marking the end of the annual pilgrimage to Mecca. One of the holiest dates in Islam,” Trudeau said.

“As families and friends across the country come together to pray, share meals, and share food with those in need, we can all be inspired by the values of sacrifice, compassion, and charity demonstrated by Muslim communities in Canada each and every day.”

The Canadian prime minister stressed the need for everyone in Canada and around the world to be able to practice their religion freely and without fear, pointing to the federal government's continued work against Islamophobia and hate in all its forms, with the support of the ongoing efforts of Amira Al-Ghawabi. the Canadian government's Special Representative to combat Islamophobia.
