I am writing to email contacts of my friend, Moshe Amon, to inform them of his death at home on November 5. Attached is a copy of the obituary notice to be run in the Vancouver Sun. There is one more article to go up on his website www.mosheamon.com as soon as I can finish proofreading. It is intended to keep the site alive for a couple of years, partly in the hope that there may be commenters to fill in more details of Moshe's eventful life.

Dear Colleagues,
We are engaged in an academic (SSHRC funded) research project entitled “New Muslim Public Spheres in the Digital Age: Identity, Community, Diversity and Authority in Canada”
Part of the project is an Online Survey that seeks to find out how Muslims living in Canada use the Internet and digital technologies and what is their impact on their lives.
We are pleased to announce that our Online Survey on Canadian Muslims Online is now live (French and English).
