A Muslim charity’s lawsuit alleges a landlord cancelled a new lease agreement with the organization after a Hamilton pastor — with a church that would be sharing the space — made Islamophobic comments during a recent service.
The Toledo Foundation was hoping the new space would host its Islamic school and said the cancellation has impacted dozens of children who had set their sights on attending it this fall.
The lawsuit, filed Sept. 17 in Ontario Superior Court, is against Great Life Church and the company that owns the building where the church operates in Stoney Creek, a community in Hamilton.
