Two more synagogues were shot at overnight in the GTA. Shaarei Shomayim in Toronto. The BAYT in Thornhill. On the Jewish Sabbath. As a Canadian Jew, I feel anger and dread. Antisemitic violence is escalating in real time, and tragically it’s becoming normalized. Gunfire at

This is exactly what I wrote about. Jews are being targeted simply because they are Jewish. Not politics. Not policy. Just identity. If that doesn’t alarm you, you’re not paying attention. Or you’re choosing not to. https://t.co/i0gkJiHWzW

March is Autoimmune & Autoinflammatory Disease Awareness Month. Millions of people including my family live with invisible illness that significantly impair daily function and cause pain. Diseases like Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis occur when the immune system turns against itself.

I’m lying in bed thinking about how I don’t think any of us has the capacity to truly comprehend the scale of the destruction of the Shoah. The annihilation of six million precious lives, one third of world Jewry, meant the annihilation of Eastern Europe’s once towering Jewish

Today, on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the 6 million Jews, and millions more, who lost their lives at the hands of the Nazis. As antisemitism rears its ugly head once again, and especially as we grapple with the atrocities of the October 7th Hamas

Remember the Ungerman and Epelbaum families. These are pictures of my great grandparents and my grandmother’s siblings from Opatow, Poland who were murdered in the #Holocaust in Treblinka. Both my grandparents were sole survivors. #HolocaustMemorialDay #NeverForget

I wrote an op ed for the @nationalpost today to say this plainly: Jewish Canadians are being targeted simply because they are Jewish. That is antisemitism. And it is getting worse. https://t.co/i0gkJiIupu

"My grandparents survived hatred. My parents fled it. My children should never have to learn to live with it. Canada can still choose differently, but only if we are willing to name what is happening now." Today's must-read is @harleyf's very personal and powerful op-ed in the

Dan Elkayam, 27, was a young French Jewish engineer, tragically murdered in the Chanukah massacre at Bondi Beach. He died a hero, shielding a young girl with his own body to protect her. Dan loved to travel and play football. He had left France to live in Australia and explore

Take a moment to read through the replies. Now imagine if the same was said about any other religion or race. Jews are expected to tolerate hate because antisemitism is a societal norm.
This is a public washroom at the Toronto Western Hospital, a University of Toronto teaching hospital. People aren't even pretending to hide their hatred for Jews anymore. It is a combination of inaction, indifference, and lack of consequence that allows this cancer to grow.

Because of the Bondi attack, we did not light 1st Night of Chanukah candles. Today, I was finally released from Hospital and we were able to light candles together, as a family. We did so in honor of all the victims & the injured. Light will always prevail over darkness! 🕎
