After the historic results of June 7, we will be seeing many new faces in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario.

Muslim Link would like to introduce you to some of the new Muslim Canadian Members of Provincial Parliament we hope to be hearing great things from over the course of their political careers.

In order to help our readers get to know these MPPs better, we have compiled some videos about the candidates and interviews they have participated in, so readers can become more familiar with their lives and work.

Meet Kaleed Rasheed

Pakistani Canadian Kaleed Rasheed is the newly elected MPP for Mississauga-East Cooksville, representing the Progressive Conservative Party.

Meet Doly Begum

Bangladeshi Canadian Doly Begum is the newly elected MPP for Scarborough Southwest, representing the NDP.

Doly Begum is the first person of Bangladeshi origin to be elected to a legislative assembly in Canada.

Meet Faisal Hassan

Somali Canadian Faisal Hassan is the newly elected MPP for York-South Weston, representing the NDP.

This interview is from when he ran representing the NDP in Etobicoke North in the 2016 Federal Election, but it will allow readers to learn more about Faisal Hassan's work before the election.

Chelby Daigle

Chelby Marie Daigle is Muslim Link’s Editor in Chief and Coordinator. Under her direction, Muslim Link adopted its Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Policy so that the website strives to reflect the complexity of Muslim communities in Canada. She knows that she fails to do justice to this complexity every day but she will continue to try to improve as she recognizes the frustration of being both marginalized in the mainstream and also marginalized in Muslim communities. As Coordinator, she works to build relationships with Muslim and mainstream organizations and manages the website's social media, event listings, and directories. She organizes regular Muslim Link gatherings. She also works closely with the Publisher to find ways to keep Muslim Link sustainable. Find her on Twitter @ChelbyDaigle
