The religious leader of around 100 million followers is coming to Canada on Monday, but don’t be surprised if you haven’t heard of him. The leader of the largest Muslim community in the world united under a single leader — whose formal title is Caliph — has gained praise for his message of peace. He’s given lectures at Capitol Hill, the U.K. House of Parliament and the European Parliament, where he advocated for humanitarian ideals, human rights and fair international relations. He’ll be taking his message to the National Peace Symposium in Toronto on Oct. 11. He’ll be spending six weeks in Canada — the longest tour of his career so far — and will travel around the country, said spokesperson Safwan Choudhry.
