Tahir Gora is the Director-General of the Progressive Muslims Institute Canada. The group says it "is against all sorts of Islamic extremism and terrorism. The group opposes gender inequality. The group denounces armed Jihad and Shariah Law." The organization recently held a rally against Islamic terrorism and extremism in Toronto.
