Summary / Abstract (Note) | Arab communities in the western world faced public scrutiny in the aftermath of 11 September 2011. The Canadian Arab community, one of the country's largest non-European ethnic populations, was no exception.1 This scrutiny was mostly due to a failure to distinguish between the motivations and beliefs of the 9/11 attackers and the culture of the Arab and Muslim communities at large, which were still little-known, although they had been present in the western world for several decades. |
