Anti-Muslim sentiment in Canada is reportedly increasing. Angus Reid found an increase between 2009 and 2013.[31] Canadian Race Relations Foundation documented a worsening of public opinion between 2012 and 2016.[63] The Association for Canadian Studies points out that as public opinion of Muslims has gotten worse, opinions regarding groups like Asians have improved. It is hypothesized that this could be "a displacement of negative sentiment" being transferred onto the Muslim population.[63]
