In the spirit of unity, clarity, and collective responsibility, the following five Muslim advocacy organizations — guided by the principles outlined in the Joint Statement of Muslim Organizations on the 2025 Federal Election — have come together to issue principled endorsements where unanimous consensus has been reached.
At the outset of this election, over 100 Muslim organizations across Canada reaffirmed a collective responsibility: to vote with a conscience rooted in justice, human dignity, and a vision for a more equitable society for all.
Building on that commitment, the above taskforce has worked diligently to identify and endorse candidates who reflect these values — individuals the Muslim community should not only vote for but actively mobilize to support.
These endorsements are the result of a principled, consensus-based process and are not exhaustive. We continue to engage with candidates, assess their track records, and evaluate their alignment with the core principles articulated in the joint statement.
As further consensus is reached, additional endorsements will be announced.
The current list, organized alphabetically by riding, includes 10 Liberal candidates, 10 NDP candidates, and 2 Green Party candidates.
If you live in any of these ridings, we encourage you to connect with the endorsed candidate and their campaign team. Get involved—make phone calls, knock on doors, make a donation and talk to your family and friends. For your convenience, we've included a link to each candidate's campaign.
And don't forget to vote!
