Excerpt:
The Toronto District School Board is temporarily pulling an Islamic Heritage Month guidebook following complaints from Jewish advocacy group B'nai Brith Canada, the Toronto Sun has learned.
The book, as I described in a recent column, is a robust 170-page document that encourages a great deal of religious intrusion in a classroom setting that's otherwise supposed to be a non-religious environment.
The recommendations include reciting and explaining the Muslim greeting "As-salamu alaykum" (peace be upon you) alongside the singing of O Canada and inviting children to visit a local mosque. It also includes templates of famous mosques around the world for children to construct during cut and paste exercises.
