"The Jewish Community in Canada is feeling frightened in a way I've never seen."

Just now, the House of Commons Justice Committee passed @AHousefather's motion for a comprehensive study on antisemitism. 👇 (Thread🧵)
This study will include a look at the rampant antisemitism on Canadian university campuses, and will be an opportunity to hear from Jewish students about their experiences.
"This has come to a crisis point ... Jews don't feel safe in the country" - MP @MarilynGladuSL highlighting the disparities in legal enforcement that undermine the security of Jews in Canada. #JUST

1/6 CIJA has been in direct contact with Canadian officials & media about the rocket misfired by Palestinian Islamic Jihad that fell onto a hospital in #Gaza.

We have made it clear that the responsibility for striking the hospital lies with the terror groups that use their own civilians as human shields & put innocent Palestinians in harms way.
 
We mourn this senseless loss of Palestinian life.
 
The immediate reaction by Canadian officials & media to promote the #Hamas narrative, blaming #Israel without any evidence, contributed to rallies across the country, including at our own #Antisemitism conference last night, where demonstrators attacked Jewish - not Israeli - symbols.
 
Spreading unverified information has real life consequences. It puts lives in danger.
2/6 More video footage & analysis showing the misfired rocket that struck the hospital in #Gaza.
3/6 Raw video footage of the misfired Palestinian Islamic Jihad rocket 👇

1/5 “24 hours after International Holocaust Remembrance Day and on The National Day of... Action against Islamophobia, there are #Nazi flags being flown in public, in Canada, on #Parliament Hill. This should be horrifying to #Canadians."
Full statement: cija.ca/nazi-flags-at-…

3/5 Added Andrea Freedman, CEO of @JewishOttawa :
“The only way to get these toxic ideologies to crawl back under the rock they slipped out from is for all Canadians to roundly and unambiguously reject and condemn these symbols of hatred...

1/4 Le drapeau #nazi est un emblème du Mal. Il n'a pas sa place dans une manifestation publique, ni au #Canada, ni ailleurs. Ceux qui le brandissent , de même que la petite minorité qui marche sous celui-ci et le tolère en leur présence, s'identifient avec le pire de l'humanité.
#cdnpoli

2/4 Protester. Criez. Désapprouvez. Mais laissez ce symbole du meurtre de 6 millions de #Juifs et d'innombrables autres dans la poubelle de l'histoire, là où il doit être. #polcan
3/4 Nous entendons des rapports selon lesquels des croix gammées et des étoiles de David déformées ont aussi été vues lors de la manifestation.
