It was published under his name, but when asked by email if he wrote the article, Michaels did not reply.

The article sent by Michaels alleges that Crombie was “purchased” by the owners of the Meadowvale Islamic Centre, that her husband is a convicted criminal and that the pair are planning on killing their son.

It also alleges that a student at a local high school was sexually assaulted by Muslim boys.

Crombie says all of those allegations are false, and she’s asked the chief of Peel Regional Police, which is responsible for Mississauga, to determine whether the matter constitutes a hate crime.

Police didn’t immediately comment when contacted Sunday.

Crombie says she’s also asked her lawyers about other legal avenues.

Michaels said in an email that he would be meeting with his staff and didn’t want to make any public statements before then.
