Synagogues and Jewish schools are attacked across Canada. In response, empty police cars sit outside such institutions to ward off future attacks.

Selena Robinson is fired from her ministerial post in the BC NDP government for stating that many Palestinians moved to Mandate Palestine from other Arab Muslim countries. This was deemed offensive to Muslims even though it is historically accurate. The Federal Liberal-NDP government has appointed one Birju Dattani to be head of the Canadian Commission on Human Rights even though he has shared articles comparing Israel to Nazi Germany and repeatedly lectured about BDS at British universities during “Israel Apartheid Week.” And to top it all off, the Canadian Minister of Foreign Affairs has sanctioned seven Israeli individuals and five Israeli entities for what she claims is “their role in facilitating, supporting or financially contributing to acts of violence by Israeli extremist settlers against Palestinian civilians and their property.” I note that she has never sanctioned any Palestinian for murdering Jews, nor has she sanctioned any Palestinian Authority figure for calling for, educating about, and rewarding the murder of Jews and the liquidation of the Jewish state.
