Dear students, colleagues and friends of the Munk School:

I know that I speak for all of us in expressing deep sorrow over the attack on a mosque in Quebec City. To target people at prayer is especially cowardly and heinous. Please join me in finding ways to express solidarity with the Muslim community in Quebec and across Canada. At a school of global affairs, acts that seek to frighten and isolate ‎any community are contrary to our very reason for being. Please be supportive of one another and reach out in kindness where you can.

Stephen J. Toope
Director
Munk School of Global Affairs
