Journalist Riffat Kausar said in a social media post that two Muslim women were reportedly subjected to anti-Muslim remarks near Canada’s Parliament in Ottawa.
According to her account, the women were allegedly told to “go back to your country” and criticized for wearing Islamic attire, in what she described as a religiously motivated act of verbal harassment.

Concerns Over Islamophobia in Canada
Canada has experienced several documented cases involving hate-motivated incidents against Muslim communities in recent years.
