Pierre Poillievre, Leader of the Opposition OpenParliament.ca, Oct. 16, 2023 “Hamas not only seeks the maximum suffering of the Israeli people; it seeks the maximum suffering of Palestinians as well. Hamas has controlled Gaza ever since Israel departed from the Gaza strip, roughly a decade and a half ago, and it has worked diligently to […]
Avi Benlolo National Post, Nov. 3, 2023 “Where are the pro-Palestinian demonstrations demanding that Hamas return the 242 Israelis and foreigners held in medieval-like conditions in Gaza? Where are the candlelight vigils and the calls to stop bombing Israeli cities and towns with crude rockets aimed at civilian populations? Where are the so-called international human rights […]
Barbara Kay National Post, Nov. 5, 2023 “As for Lyons’s curious public reticence, she may be operating under a superannuated anti-antisemitism paradigm of genteel back-channel diplomacy. This is the one where Jews (or in Lyons’s case a non-Jew who understands the way things work in Jewish communities) avoid combating antisemitism in ways that are too […]

Anja Karadeglija National Post, Sept. 26, 2023 “The narrative of Canadians honouring a Nazi as a hero fits into multiple Russian regime narratives that are used to try to legitimize the horrors that Russia is committing in Ukraine.” On Tuesday, a Russian embassy account posted online that Ukraine was issuing stamps with the face […]
Carson Jerema National Post, Sept. 26, 2023 “… the Liberals, who ridiculously tried to have the honouring of the Nazi soldier stricken from Parliament’s records, can’t seem to understand why anyone cares about this, especially when, in their minds, everyone knows who the real Nazis are — the Conservatives.” Canada is being mocked […]
Ian Austen NY Times, Sept. 26, 2023 “Being trained by SS officers, you can imagine the kind of political indoctrination they got,” he said. Even if their aims were for independence, Mr. Arel said the unit “fought for and were trained by Nazis. There’s no question about it.” The speaker of Canada’s House […]

INCREASING TIES LISTEN: Antisemitic Incidents Seem Disproportionately High in Canada. How Is This Possible?: Canadian Jewish News, May 1, 2023 — When B’nai Brith released its annual antisemitism report on April 17, documenting 2,769 incidents of Jew hatred in Canada last year, we wondered why the numbers were so high. After all, the Canadian government’s […]
Dion J. Pierre Algemeiner, May 19, 2023 “Although there was an almost insignificant decrease from last year, antisemitic incidents continue to occur at an unacceptable and dangerous pace. Frankly, the amount of hate directed at Canadian Jews is shameful.” The number of antisemitic hate crimes in Toronto, Canada recorded in 2022 remained above pre-pandemic […]
Andrea Freedman Ottawa Citizen, Dec. 16, 2022 “… it came to light that Canadian MPs from all parties (Bloc Québécois, Conservatives, Greens, Liberals and NDP), including federal cabinet minister Omar Alghabra and Green Party Leader Elizabeth May, attended a reception on Parliament Hill at which a Holocaust denier and terrorist sympathizer, Nazih Khatatba, was also present.” Less than a […]

SHABBAT READING The Plague of Evil Speech: Tazria, Metzora, 5768, 5783: Jonathan Sacks, The Rabbi Sacks Legacy — The Rabbis moralised the condition of tzara’at – often translated as leprosy – the subject that dominates both Tazria and Metzora. It was, they said, a punishment rather than a medical condition. Their interpretation was based on the internal evidence of the Mosaic books […]
