The point is that the Principal of the school wanted this to happen. He arranged a 30 minute period during lunchtime in the cafeteria hall.Ejar , just because population is 90 % Muslim does not mean they start this thing.
If that school is Canadian government school hen that should be stop. If this school is a local people property then they can do that. If this is going on for last 3 years then that not make it right also.
Muslims DID NOT force this upon the school administration and DID NOT request this in the first place. It was the Principal's idea.
Have you read about any Muslim group saying that they WILL pray in the school no matter what?
Its a public school, the students used to go to the local mosque that was down the road during Friday lunch break. The principal felt that the time could be saved by having it in house. Now if tomorrow they say no prayers on school premises. That is what will happen and things will revert back how it was three years ago.
But to now say that somehow the Muslims are taking over Cannda, forcing their religion on non-muslims, dictating to the school authorities that this HAS to be done on school premises e.t.c is not only stretching the truth but falsifying it.
I gave you the antecedents of the advocacy group and I hope you understand where they are coming from. There could have been more constructive ways to say that they don't want muslim prayers in school like taking to the Principal or engaging the local muslim leaders itself. But the fringe group is more interested in the usual Muslim bashing. Here is a quote from the Globe and mail that was posted earlier

Now after this, do you think Mr. Banerjee is taking up this cause in good conscience or just to bash Islam and Muslims?Canadian Hindu Advocacy often opposes Islam and Sikhism. During a speech at a 2010 rally for right-wing Dutch politician Geert Wilders, Mr. Banerjee said Islam is less a religion than an ideology, and that Islamic civilization had contributed "less to human advancement than a pack of donkeys."
