Introduction by Hadayt Nazami, human rights and refugee lawyer

About this event:  On Monday, November 9 at 7:15 pm, Ottawa resident Abdullah Almalki, an engineer and father of six children, will speak in Toronto for the first time about how he was falsely labelled and became the target of one of the longest "national security" investigations in Canadian history.
