I don't think you have to stretch your imagine too far to realize the threats against the Canadian Muslim Congress are coming from foreign Muslim extremists who have decided its time to bring Canada into line.

It's believed Iranian and Saudi influence is at the root of these threats and it's maddening to think this could have an affect on law abiding, moderate Muslims in Canada who'd prefer to have ancient and archaic attitudes remain in the Middle East.
