EXCERPT:
But it (CAIR-CAN) saved its harshest criticism for the Quebec-based blog, Point-de-Bascule, for exposing the work of Islamists in Canada.
Labelling Pointe-de-Bascule (sic) as having an “Islamophobic bias”, CAIR-Can accused the group of taking “aim at Muslims using misinformation to foster fear and suspicion.”
Again, not true. Pointe de Bascule (sic) has organized two conferences in Montreal featuring Muslim speakers.

EXTRAIT :
CAIR-Can a toutefois réservé ses critiques les plus acerbes pour le blogue québécois Point de Bascule qui expose les activités des islamistes au Canada. CAIR-Can reproche à Point de Bascule d'entretenir des «préjugés islamophobes». CAIR-Can l'accuse de «cibler les musulmans en recourant à la désinformation pour semer la peur et la suspicion». Encore une fois : c’est faux. Point de Bascule a organisé deux conférences à Montréal avec des orateurs musulmans.
