salam all,
 
Kindly read the below e-mail and vote based on what you think.
 
Personally, I think that Islam and Muslims are not at all a  threat to any person around the globe, but they are all peace. 
 
However, I think those so-called or titled (by them self or others) as radicals are a threat to all who do not follow their ideology (as they claim and as judged by others), yet, they are NOT the biggest threat to Canada, because they do not operate here nor exist (at least in public). 
 
However, such prejudice statements especially from a person who is a the leader of the nation carry behind it much more then the simple form of it, and it give a negative impression (from Muslims point of view) of the true characteristics of this man (and whom he represent) in light of his many views in similar topic related to Islam, Muslims and conflicts taking place in Muslim countries especially in the middle east.

In an exclusive interview with CBC News, Prime Minister Stephen Harper says the biggest security threat to Canada a decade after 9/11 is Islamic terrorism.
In a wide-ranging interview with CBC chief correspondent Peter Mansbridge that will air in its entirety on The National Thursday night, Harper says Canada is safer than it was on Sept. 11, 2001, when al-Qaeda attacked the U.S., but that "the major threat is still Islamicism."

"There are other threats out there, but that is the one that I can tell you occupies the security apparatus most regularly in terms of actual terrorist threats," Harper said.
Harper cautioned that terrorist threats can "come out of the blue" from a different source, such as the recent Norway attacks, where a lone gunman who hated Muslims killed 77 people.
But Harper said terrorism by Islamic radicals is still the top threat, though a "diffuse" one.

Full interview Thursday

CBC's exclusive interview with Stephen Harper about how 9/11 changed Canada, and how it changed him, runs this Thursday night on The National.
"When people think of Islamic terrorism, they think of Afghanistan, or maybe they think of some place in the Middle East, but the truth is that threat exists all over the world," he said, citing domestic terrorism in Nigeria.
The prime minister said home-grown Islamic radicals in Canada are "also something that we keep an eye on."

Tories to resurrect controversial anti-terrorism laws

Harper said his government will bring back anti-terrorism clauses that were brought in in 2001 but were sunset in 2007 amid heated political debate.
There were two clauses at the heart of the debate:
  • One allowed police to arrest suspects without a warrant and detain them for three days without charges if police believed a terrorist act may have been committed.
  • The other allowed a judge to compel a witness to testify in secret about past associations or perhaps pending acts under penalty of going to jail if the witness didn't comply.
Neither clause was used by police or prosecutors in the five years before they expired.
In October 2006, a parliamentary committee recommended extending the two provisions.
The Conservatives put forward a proposal to keep the measures in place for three more years, but the three opposition parties united to defeat the proposal in February 2007 by a 159-124 vote.
The rest of the legislation remained in force.

P.O.V.:

Do you agree with Prime Minister Harper? Take our survey.
When asked by Mansbridge if he would try to bring those laws back, Harper replied: "That is our plan."
"We think those measures are necessary. We think they've been useful," he said. "And as you know … they're applied rarely, but there are times where they're needed."
