We strongly condemn the latest hateful act targeting the mosque in San Diego. There is absolutely no place in our society for hate, intimidation, or attacks against people based on their faith.

At a time when communities should be coming together in compassion and understanding, such acts seek to divide and spread fear. We stand in full solidarity with the Muslim community and with all those impacted by this cowardly act.

We must speak with one united voice to condemn hatred in the strongest possible terms and reaffirm our commitment to peace, dignity, and respect for all people. Hate against one community is a threat to us all.

President, The Centre for Responsible Leadership
