Standard methods of police and campus de-escalation used for demonstrations that cross the line into promoting terrorism & hate has not been effective. It has actually empowered the haters. We need police & universities across North America to use a more active approach.

As Passover begins, I would ask Canadians to reflect on the fact that yesterday our Prime Minister & Leader of the Opposition both needed to issue statements about antisemitic demonstrations in our streets. The last 6 months were the worst in 300 yrs. of Canadian Jewish history.

Il y a une différence entre les manifestations pacifiques et l’intimidation haineuse.

Il est inadmissible de glorifier les actes de violence antisémite, notamment les meurtres, que le Hamas a commis le 7 octobre. Ce genre de discours n’a pas sa place au Canada. Absolument pas.

There is a difference between peaceful protest and hateful intimidation.

It is unconscionable to glorify the antisemitic violence and murder perpetrated by Hamas on October 7th. This rhetoric has no place in Canada. None.

Chants glorifying terrorism. Chants that the US House of Representatives massively voted are antisemitic. Chants extolling violence. This is not a rally for peace.

I supported the substance of the motion of my colleague, who is a true ally of the Jewish community & I will encourage all my colleagues to support it when it is raised again.

Yesterday the Heritage committee held hearings on a bill to enshrine the court challenges program. A motion was raised without notice. It requires unanimous consent to debate it & change the subject of the meeting. 1 Liberal said no. Not to the content. To changing the subject.

A lot of mistruths are flying around about a motion on antisemitism on campus. First I moved a motion at the Justice Committee months ago to study antisemitism on campus and it was adopted several weeks ago and the hearings will start soon. 1/2

This morning, I attended the press conference announcing the development Namur-Hippodrome sector, a promising initiative set to construct 20 000 new housing units! However, it's imperative to connect both sides of Cavendish Boulevard to ensure the success of this project.

This is a really important program and was a huge budget priority for the Liberal Jewish caucus. Of course the SIP benefits the community safety of all by allowing churches, synagogues, mosques, other houses of worship, schools etc to upgrade security.

Very pleased to see some significant measures proposed to preserve the memory of the Holocaust and to combat antisemitism in 🇨🇦 in Budget 2024:

👉Increase in funding to the Security Infrastructure Program (SIP) to support the safety and security of Jewish communities.

Canada should designate the IRGC as a terrorist entity. Permits to ship military technology to Israel should be resumed. Extolling terrorism in Canadian streets should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
