While most saw this as a cynical election ploy, the Spectator\u2019s Steve Buist reported the blogger\u2019s writings uncritically as the \u201cFrench language webmagazine Point de Bascule (Tipping Point),\u201d somehow ignoring the blog\u2019s pattern of mounting personal attacks on Canadian Muslim leaders.<\/p>\n<p>I work next door to Hussein who treated the silly and sordid episode with his typically unflappable composure. Hussein has built one of the largest commercial law clienteles west of Toronto based on an attitude of calm, friendly, trustworthy, and clear advice. He handles complex convertible debt offerings and is a leading advisor to angel investing networks in the GTHA, yet his approach to law is to build trust rather than seeking to impress.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&nbsp; By Anders Knudson,\u00a0Lawyer, Simpson Wigle Law LLP Hussein Hamdani is a corporate commercial lawyer, business leader, community organizer, and recently, object of a smear campaign orchestrated b...","protected":false},"author":244,"featured_media":17011,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ep_exclude_from_search":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8065],"tags":[2669,19,2670,2663],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/cekan.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/light-blue-backer.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cekan.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17028"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cekan.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cekan.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cekan.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/244"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cekan.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17028"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cekan.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17028\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17030,"href":"https:\/\/cekan.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17028\/revisions\/17030"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cekan.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17011"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cekan.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17028"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cekan.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17028"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cekan.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17028"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
