Tarek Fatah, MCC's founder, said he is asking the members to send "tiny teddy bears" to Faiza Hassan Taha, Sudan's ambassador in Ottawa, as a protest
The MCC hopes to meet Ms. Taha next week in Ottawa to present her with a teddy bear and a petition opposing Ms. Gibbons' imprisonment and protesting the genocide in Darfur, western Sudan They also plan to tell the ambassador they "feel deeply offended as Canadians and as Muslims," Mr. Fatah said
He added the teacher made no mistake in allowing her class to call the stuffed toy Muhammad
"This woman should be released immediately and in fact the Sudanese government should apologize to her for treating her [this way], because this is contrary to any tradition of Islam," he said. "If people don't protest this, against this lunacy, where will our political correctness lead us to?"
