On Oct. 23, 2006, Maclean's ran a cover story by Mark Steyn, entitled "Why the Future Belongs to Islam." The piece, excerpted from Steyn's acclaimed book, America Alone, argued that Western legal and political traditions are being eroded by radical elements in the Islamic community who want our societies to more closely reflect Muslim religious values.

We published that story because we felt it was a compelling perspective on significant world events, from one of Canada's most interesting and celebrated journalists. Besides Maclean's, Steyn's work has appeared regularly in the Wall Street Journal, the Daily Telegraph, and The Atlantic monthly, to name just a few. His book was an international best-seller, and its author remains a highly sought public speaker all over the world.

Human rights commissions are undermining the fundamental Charter rights of all Canadians. Protest while you still can.
