Jonasson says he was asked by the NDP to step down and agreed to do so.

He didn't quit, he was dumped. Nice headline.

Three years ago, Jonasson posted a religious article on social media, and accused the Haredim � an Orthodox branch of Judaism � of mistreating women by segregating the sexes, enforcing strict dress codes and more. He wrote "much like the Taliban and other extremists, the Haredim offer a toxic caricature of faith at odds

This isn't Taliban, this is normal Islam. All of it.

Funny, I meet Muslim women who wear the same clothes as anybody else, work, drive cars, etc. Never seem to meet Hardim like that.

Nor did he link them, he merely compared them and he wasn't wrong.
