Group plans to screen 'Innocence of the Muslims' across Canada Jim Morris, QMI AgencyVANCOUVER – A "grassroots Canadian organization'' is hoping to arrange a screening of the controversial film about the Prophet Mohammed in cities across the country.Ron Banerjee of Canadian Hindu Advocacy said Canadians want to see Innocence of the Muslims."It's not a Hindu group,'' Banerjee said in a telephone interview from Toronto. "It's a regular Canadian grassroots organization.''Banerjee said his advocacy group — which he claims has "several hundred members and supporters across Canada'' — has received several inquiries about screening the movie in Canadian cities."We have got e-mails and phone calls from organizations in 13 different cities in both Canada and the U.S. that are interested in doing a simultaneous screening. The trouble is we are all trying to find the original copy of the film. That's a little difficult given the peculiar circumstances of the producer of the film.''The anti-Islam video, produced in the U.S., has triggered a wave of demonstrations and riots in the Middle East and beyond. It portrays the Prophet Mohammed as a child molester."We have the freedom to show a movie like that and we shouldn't succumb to threats of violence,†said Banjeree.
