The author is described as an"associate professor of journalism at Ryerson University".  He is a self-professed Muslim and argues that Canada has a "culture of hate against Muslims".  In this comments section, his views are being debated, but what are the chances that  anyone in the Ryerson community - faculty, administrators, students - would have the courage to argue publicly against his views ?  Zero.   Such is the power of stultifying political correctness on Canadian campuses, no one will dare to stand up and say that Canada does not have a culture of hate towards Muslims. The result? Many will believe that his views are accurate  because they will never hear anyone on the public stage saying that they are not.
