Guest: Dania Suleman, a lawyer and author from Quebec

The National Council of Canadian Muslims wants the government to show they're serious about tackling violent and systemic Islamophobia. This week, the council released a list of 60 calls to action to implement policy change at a federal, provincial and local levels. The NCCM is also calling on governments to challenge Bill 21 in Quebec, the law that bans public service workers from wearing of religious symbols. Dania Suleman, a lawyer and author from Quebec, explains the impact and implications of this particular law from a Canadian Muslim woman's perspective.
