    A few hundred people from the city's Ahmadiyya Muslim community of roughly 1,500 raised $8 million for the mosque's construction.

    One of the contributors, taxi driver Ijaz Ahmad, said he sold his house and moved his family into a basement apartment in order to donate $100,000.

    "Children broke their piggy banks, people sold their houses, they donated the money and moved to basements, some people obtained second mortgages," Khan said at Friday's dedication ceremony.

    I'd be curious to hear what people would say if Harper would appear at the opening of a new church, or temple.

    That would help in Liberalising the place. :D

    A very positive development.

    I think it is GREAT that they contributed $ 8 million to it themselves. However, I wonder where the other $ 7 million came from?

    And from what sources of money are other religious buildings built in Canada?
    (just curiosity, before anyone thinks I am sarcastic :?)

    Baaah!!! I pass this every day when I go pick up and Day & Ross.

    Nothing new, and nothing wrong with it as far as I can see.

    If you want people to respect your beliefs, you should do the same.
