Muslim Student blast for Boycotting ‘Pride’ Festival celebration in Canada

According to a News report by Tony Ademiluyi "Lifesite News reported that an audio recording exposed an intolerant Canadian teacher who blasted Muslim students for boycotting ‘pride’ festivities which traditionally holds globally in the month of June. The misguided teacher opined that the students cannot be Canadian if they failed to participate in the ‘pride’ activities."

Pride Festival which is an annual celebration for gays all across the globe is being carried out with tittles as the London Pride, Vienna Pride, Disneyland Paris pride, Rekjavik Pride, EuroPride in Valletta among many others. 

Tony said that "The audio recording was posted on Twitter yesterday by user Hamzah wald Maqbul, on which a teacher from Londonderry School in Edmonton made the comments to junior high students. Londonderry includes students in Grades 7-9 in Edmonton Public Schools.

“A zealot teacher from Londonderry, Alberta, goes nuts on Muslim students for excusing themselves from #PrideMonth celebrations. It is lonely & isolating to experience this type of thing at the hands of fanatical teachers & I’ve experienced it myself. We’re on your side Mansūr,” tweeted Maqbul.

In the recording, a teacher can be heard saying, “Do you think it’s acceptable to not show up because you think there are some Pride activities going on at school.”

“It’s not a joke. Mansūr.”

According to Maqbul, he got the recording from “multiple sources,” but it is unconfirmed. However, LifeSiteNews has confirmed with Edmonton Public Schools that the teacher in question does work at Londonderry School and made the comments.

The teacher then asserted that Muslim students were instead “hanging out at the mall” and not taking part in pride activities and said when Ramadan was celebrated, other students were in class.

“They’re showing respect to the class, for your religion,” the teacher said about the students who celebrated “pride.”

The teacher then claimed that one’s religion is somehow the same as being LGBTQ.

“It goes two ways. If you want to be respected for who you are, if you don’t want to suffer prejudice for your religion, your color, skin, your whatever, then you got to give back to people who are different from you,” she told the students.

“That’s how it works. It’s an exchange. And it isn’t like that in all countries, as I told you.”
