    Moncton establishes its first mosque

    Muslims in the greater Moncton area are hoping their new mosque will help keep more new immigrants in the region.

    Until recently, Muslims met for worship in their own homes, or in rooms at the Université de Moncton.

    The new building, in the city's downtown area, is more visible and provides a central meeting place for the community.

    Riaz Akhtar, president of the Greater Moncton Muslim Association, said the mosque will be a great advantage for new immigrants.

    "Now that we have a mosque, I think it will be an added advantage to the new immigrants," Akhtar said. "They'll find there is already a community; they can become part of it. We can help to some extent in introducing them to the community."

    The association is planning to hold an open house at the new building in the next few months, Akhtar said.

    Who knows? But it would be nice if that was true. Our country was built on, for and by immigrants, so I for one would love to see our government giving back as much as possible.

    That whole statement makes no sence whatsoever.

    Giving back to who,,,,? Immigrants??

     

    Re==Our country was built on, for and by immigrants,

    Name me 6 countries on this whole planet that weren't founder by immigrants. Hell,, name 3. Heck,,name  1.

    Its logic like that that gives " liberals " a bad rep.

    Re: Islam in Moncton, gets its First mosque

        Well, first of all I'm not a liberal. Secondly, what doesn't make sense about me wanting our government to give back to it's citizens? Also, I don't claim to know about other countries...I can't tell you what other countries were founded on and I don't know where you got the assumption that I could. Why do people on this board pull stuff out of nowhere?

    Canada has a huge multi-cultural background. If you don't know that, then  I'm not sure where to start with you. How about Italians? Not just in Canada, but in North America. They came over here and built our buildings, sky scrapers, and homes. Don't twist this into me saying they did it all, because I know they didn't, but they did their "fair" share.

    It boggles my mind how anyone can think there is such thing as a Canadian, who's heritage was always based on this continent. It just isn't so. Most Canadians' ancestries come from other countries.

    Why don't you explain how my statement makes "no sense whatsoever"? This country has always welcomed immigrants. It's one of the things our government prides itself in.

    So tell me how I make no sense. I'd love to learn more.

    If I thought you would be able to comprehend the facts I would explain them to you. However I don't believe you can so I won't bother wasting my time.

     

    I will leave you one tidbit to spend your time on... I am a Canadian.

    You might not believe it or accept it.Who cares. It is a fact. Deal with it as you may and move on. You embarrass yourself otherwise.

        Also, I didn't say was only built for immigrants.

    Re: Islam in Moncton, gets its First mosque

     You can say that I don't make sense, but you can't explain why? Perhaps it's because you're taking what was said, and making more to the story than is really there.
