On Friday, March 15 a terrorist walked into two mosques and opened fire on Muslim worshippers.

Investigators believe the attacks in Christchurch, New Zealand were fuelled by Islamophobia and hate. It shocked people around the world, even though the hate exists globally. But did you know that close to 300 hate groups exist in Canada and that they often go undetected?

On this week’s episode of the Global News original podcast This is Why, host Niki Reitmayer sits down with former white supremacist Brad Galloway who explains how hate crimes will only get worse.
