Powerful speech by a Jewish high school girl about her experience with the @tdsb. After a Holocaust survivor came to speak to her class, one student took offence to the program and said things like: “All Jews who died in the Holocaust deserved it” and “if I was alive in 1940’s

In memory of 6 million men, women and children who were murdered just because they were Jewish. To commemorate the Holocaust and its victims, we must speak out against antisemitism today. In the face of darkness, be the light. #NeverForget #YomHaShoah

This Yom Hashoah is particularly difficult. Moshe Ridler, 91, survived the Holocaust as a nine year old and came to Israel by himself where he built a beautiful family. He was murdered on October 7 by Hamas terrorists. His grandson said that he was “the best grandfather

This #YomHaShoah, I’m thinking of Alex Dancyg. Born in Warsaw, 1948, to Holocaust survivor parents. He’s a Holocaust historian, and on October 7, Hamas took him hostage from Nir Oz. Captivity survivors say he gave history lectures to fellow hostages. Hamas must let him go. 🎗️

During World War II, millions of people were killed. Among them, 6 Million Jews perished in the Holocaust. They were murdered simply because of their Jewish roots. Today, on Holocaust Remembrance Day, we honor their memory. We will continue defending our country and ensure

Hamas are terrorists. They murder, rape and torture. They instigate martyrdom. They brazenly admit they will keep terrorizing until Israel and the Jewish people are no more. Shouting “long live October 7” is not free speech. It’s promoting terrorism. And it must not be tolerated.
“October 7th Proves We’re Almost Free!”. The crowd goes wild. “Long live October 7th!” Today, downtown Ottawa. No more euphemisms, they are openly promoting terrorism and violence towards Jews. This is intolerable and it is time for Canadians to speak up.

As Iran launches missiles at our ally Israel, I ask my colleagues who voted for a motion to not authorize arms sales to Israel, which would include defensive ones, whether they understand the implications of what they voted for. This misguided policy must be reversed now.

Most celebrities wearing red pins don’t know that the image of red hands is associated with one horrific event imprinted on the minds of Israelis and Palestinians. The 2000 Ramallah lynching of Israelis. This symbolism isn’t a coincidence.

Interesting and important piece by @FranklinFoer in new issue of @TheAtlantic about the importance of the Jewish American contribution to progressive and liberal causes and how antisemitism is now eroding that relationship.

Anti-Semitism on the right and the left threatens to bring to a close an unprecedented period of safety and prosperity for Jewish Americans—and demolish the liberal order they helped establish.

I recently spoke to more than 4000 Jewish teens at @BBYOInsider. And I told them, very soon, most of you will go to college. That’s exciting. But for Jewish students, university campuses can be tough places these days. So I want to run through a few things that you will

Today in the House of Commons, @marcomendicino gave a clear denouncement of the shocking display of #antisemitism from anti-Israel protestors at Mount Sinai hospital. Thank you for this statement, and for your commitment to fighting antisemitism in all its forms. #cdnpoli
