Exciting news! @NextdoorCanada has been named to @BayStBull's incredible list of 50 Canadian game-changing companies. It's a recognition of our mission, and another indication of how much it has resonated with Canadians. Thank you neighbours! baystbull.com/the-power-50-c…

The horrific event that happened in Ancaster Meadowlands (reported yesterday) demonstrated that, yes, the @CompanionChamp initiative remains important. No one should be afraid to go out for a walk. 🙏🏼 @sulemaan

We knew this. We dreaded it. I'm surprised it took this long. Muslim women will be targets of gendered Islamophobia. Staying home, choosing to (un)cover to remain safe. That's where we are. This isn't specific to #HamOnt it will happen again and again.
We at NCCM were deeply saddened to hear of yet another terrifying attack on two Muslim women wearing hijab in Hamilton. See statement from the family below:

Many people have been scared to go for a walk following the deaths of 4 members of the Afzaal family last month. Especially those who are visibly Muslim. Now, there's a new walking buddy app. More about @CompanionChamp w/ @mglenn at 8:10. #LdnOnt READ: cbc.ca/player/play/192117561…

It's painful to get reinforcement on why a service to protect ppl is needed. These incidents are horrific. Sign up to help if you can.
This is why we are offering to help others walk in conjunction with our partners at @NextdoorCanada. No one should ever be afraid to walk in 🇨🇦 regardless of race, religion, sex, colour, creed or sexual orientation.

The initial tweet
Thinking of a walking buddy service for our respected elders. Many are stuck at home due to Covid-19 & now afraid to go out. Whatever they are - Black, Muslim, Sikh, Jewish, Indigenous, Asian - they are 🇨🇦 & we’ll help them. Start small & scale. Want in? DM me.

Some just tweet a lot of opinions. Sulemaan Ahmed tweets a moderate amount, but gets all kinds of amazing things DONE! 💗 ✅ Walking buddy service sparked by @sulemaan’s desire to support minority groups across 🇨🇦, reports @Zahra_Premji for @CBCNews cbc.ca/news/canada/british-c…
