Place 'dangerous' far-right group on terror list, Alberta Muslim council urges Ottawa

Mar 18, 2019

The Alberta Muslim Public Affairs Council (AMPAC) is calling on the federal government to fund deradicalization programs and place the Three Percenters and other far-right extremist groups on the terror list.

The call to address the rise in hate crimes and far-right extremism came as AMPAC honoured the 50 worshippers killed in two mosques in New Zealand on Friday.

"They've shown radical tendencies and they've got a clear trail that shows that they are a dangerous group that needs to be addressed," AMPAC spokesperson Adil Hassan told a crowd that included municipal and provincial politicians, police, and local faith and Indigenous leaders.
