From here:

The Islamic Supreme Council of Canada is urging Muslims to speak out against Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s recent remarks about their religion.

Harper told CBC this week that “Islamicism” poses the most pressing threat to Canada’s security, and that the country’s intelligence service is mostly preoccupied with Islamic extremism.

“How can Mr. Harper associate Islam with radicalism and fanaticism?” the group asked in a statement.

That’s a real puzzle.

I’m sure it wasn’t easy, but perhaps the 17,000 acts of Islamic terror committed since 9/11 provided the clue that enabled Harper to make the association.
