Juts would like to mention that there is 3-hours time difference (5 - 6 hours flight) between British Columbia & Ontario. So there might be no moon sight in Toronto but BCMCA has confirmed moon sigh in Vancouver. This is why probably there are 2-Eids in Canada.
Again to remind that Eid on Moon Sight not on days of Ramadan.
H A P P Y E I D anyways ........... :)

Its not like that actually ISNA decided they will celebrate Eid on Tuesday and Hilalcommette decided they will celebrate Eid on Wednesday So Toronto Mulims have two Eids

well there are actually two eids in Toronto only. The rest of Canada is celebrating Eid unanimously tomorrow on Tuesday. There has been enough evidence for eid on Tuesday but the hardline mullahs of GTA are trying to create same differences as they have done in Pakistan. We are celebrating Eid tomorrow Insha Allah.

I don't know why all muslim uma can't celebrate in one day. Shame on Pakistani selfish Mulah and etc who just can't celebrate EID with Saudi. All the muslim countries in the world follow Saudi, but my Pakistani Mulah's :-(

The problem here in Canada is that ISNA and few other organizations ... they go by a calendar already setup scientifically ... so they already know well in advance when a certain Islamic month will begin and when will the Eid be ... and in most cases, they follow Saudi Arabia which BTW follow the correct Islamic guidelines of seeing the new moon physically before deciding on the start of the holy months or Eid. The same thing here in Canada ... there are organizations which strictly follow the guidelines of having confirmation of new moon when it is visible and it wasn't visible at all yesterday at least in Ontario and no one came forward with confirm sighting thus Eid is on Wednesday.
