Events Across Canada Commemorating The Quebec Mosque Shooting

Nineteen others were injured, including Aymen Derbali, who is now paralysed. Dawanet is currently fundraising in order to secure him an accessible home where he can live with his wife and children.

DawaNet hold film screenings across Canada of their documentary "Your Last Walk in the Mosque", a documentary about the impact of the Quebec mosque attack on the families of those who died and the Muslim community in Quebec City.

These film screenings, along with other vigils, lectures, and gatherings are taking place across Canada to commemorate the Quebec Mosque Shooting and to discuss the issue of anti-Muslim bigotry and violence in Canada.

Muslim Link is compiling a list of these events. If you would like to add an event taking place in your city, please email us at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
