Would Saudi Arabia’s jailed blogger be accused of ‘Islamophobia’ in Canada?

Can Trudeau's government have it both ways? How can it champion Badawi's right to freely criticize Saudi Arabia's form of Islam at the same time that Liberal MPs make a virtue of condemning anyone who disparages Islam, including the deadly rules in many theocratic Muslim countries, which legislate that people should have their heads cut off for leaving the 1.5-billion-member faith?

Ali Rizvi, Canadian-based author of The Atheist Muslim, says "It's interesting to me that if he finally made it to Canada and joined his wife and kids here, a lot of his ideas would be considered 'Islamophobic' by liberals over here because of the criticisms he makes."
