  "reliability_note": "Independent academic corroboration, consulted 26 October 2026. The study, whose interviews were held in 2019 in Vancouver, Calgary and Ottawa under Carleton University ethics approval, names 'Imams Navaid Aziz and Zijad Delic, both involved in deradicalization initiatives across Canada' among its expert interviewees on Muslim converts and radicalisation. It attests his public role as an imam working in deradicalisation; it says nothing of his legal school.",
