Amal and I had a great and detailed discussion about her work on Omni TV and the importance of positive representation in the media and programming of Muslims. In this case, the Somali community in Canada and specifically Alberta gets a lot of bad press. I'm proud that Amal is creating shows that show our community and Muslims in a positive light.
