*******************************
Canadians can't be blamed for missing the anti-Islamophobia motion that passed in parliament last week. If you Google it, you won't get a single hit in mainstream media: not in CBC, not in Postmedia, not in the Globe and Mail, nowhere.
In fact, when this piece is published, it may be the first media piece talking about Canada's successful anti-Islamophobia motion.
While you won't find any coverage of the anti-Islamophobia motion that passed on Oct. 26, you will find articles about a similar motion that was defeated on Oct. 6.
Personally, I find it curious that a motion condemning Islamophobia that fails is news, while an identical motion that passes is not.
This may be a case of "anti-Islamophobia motion meets Islamophobic media."
