Grateful to the MCIS mothers and the team at Midaynta Community Services for inviting us to stand with you at the release of the Mothers and Sons report.
Your leadership continues to center the voices of Somali mothers, confront anti-Black racism, and push institutions toward real accountability and community-led safety. The challenges facing our families in Toronto and Ottawa are deeply connected — and so is our commitment to prevention, healing, and justice.
We’re honoured to walk alongside you.

Grateful to Wali Farah from North Star Immigration Consulting for leading such an informative and empowering session for our community 🙏🏾

Your clear breakdown of immigration, sponsorship, and citizenship updates—and how families can advocate for themselves and their children—was incredibly valuable. Our participants left feeling more informed, supported, and confident navigating these systems.

Thank you for sharing your expertise and standing with our community 🤍

Ottawa, October 2025 — The Suradway Parents Association of Ottawa is calling for equitable attention and accountability in how hate-motivated incidents are investigated and reported across the city. Over the past two months, Ottawa has seen three violent attacks, all determined or investigated as hate-motivated: August 27 – College Square Loblaws: A Jewish woman was stabbed in an antisemitic assault that prompted national headlines and public condemnations from multiple levels of government. August 11 – OC Transpo Bus (Kanata): A young Muslim woman wearing a hijab was assaulted and threatened; charges included inciting hate. The Prime Minister and the Mayor issued statements denouncing the attack. August 25 – Blair Station: A Black Muslim woman was beaten and left bloodied and unable to work. Initially treated as a simple assault by OC Transpo, the case was later upgraded to a hate-motivated offence and transferred to the Ottawa Police Service Hate and Bias Crime Unit. Despite the Blair Station incident now being officially recognized as hate-motivated, no major media outlet has covered the case, and no political leader has issued a public statement. “When our political leaders and media outlets bring attention to hate crimes, they send a message to Canadians about the kind of nation we want to be, and about our values — selective empathy shouldn’t be one of them.” — Abdirizak Mohamud, Managing Director, Suradway Parents Association of Ottawa Suradway is urging local and national institutions to adopt consistent standards of transparency and public communication when responding to hate-motivated violence. The organization also calls on newsrooms to ensure equal visibility for all victims, regardless of race, faith, or background. “Hate in Ottawa wears many faces — but our compassion and accountability must be one.” — Abdirizak Mohamud
