Every Passover, often on a Sunday morning, the family gathers together at my mother’s place for the traditional matzah brei fry

If everyone simply sat at the same table to share each others special foods, the world would be inundated with peace

(And in this case, maple syrup)

This is #HateSpeech

The speaker is glorifying the murder, mutilation, rape and kidnapping by Hamas on October 7

These hateful words are repeated in cities all over Canada

Since when did my country tolerate such #antisemitism ?

Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center CIJA

In my neighbourhood. Filed under “anti-Zionism is not antisemitism” and “these words mean different things to different people” and “context and nuance”.

It is not the mandate of Ontario Medical Association to engage in antisemitic propaganda

OMA represents doctors in Ontario - it would be inappropriate for it to weigh in on an issue that is not within its sphere, about which its membership may be divided

CUPE Ontario could learn from this

To all those who still doubt that the keffiyeh the object of cultural appropriation and weaponization against Jews, look no further

Harassing and intimidating physicians is never OK

District 11 of Ontario Medical Association condemns this organized campaign against its Jewish members and encourages all HCPs to the same

We will not tolerate #antisemitic attacks by or against any of our members

This video should be required viewing for every antisemite on this platform who has consistently misrepresented the CIJ_ICJ’s decision on South Africa’s claim

You CANNOT use the ICJ to justify your racist charges of genocide

The message that Sarah Jama and all Ontarians received was:

There are rules in the legislature - if you break the rules you will not be allowed to participate

Anyone can visit QP. As an MPP you can speak your mind. You can’t use political props

That’s it

That’s the lesson

Milton deserves a representative who is honest and authentic

But it also needs a representative that will not marginalize an oppressed minority by making antisemitic statements

Milton, please elect a DECENT human being to represent you

Jews and non-Jews alike must adamantly reject this as the new normal:

“I worry about the next generation of Jewish students. I’ve spoken to Jewish medical students and residents who feel they have to completely scrub their resumés and applications of anything that might identity…

Marit Stiles We must absolutely respect Muslim, Arab, and Palestinian colleagues, yes. No question.

She’s not wearing a keffiyeh as a cultural symbol. She’s wearing it as a political statement. In opposition to Israel.

The same woman who questioned the veracity of Hamas atrocities on Oct 7.

If the scarf of which you speak signified resistance to an oppressive regime you might have a point

But this scarf is being appropriated and weaponized by people who are calling for the genocide of Jews

If the #Keffiyeh is part of someone’s culture and they want to wear it, they should not be prevented from doing so

However, people like Matthew Green 🍊📈✊🏾, Heather McPherson and others who engage in cultural appropriation and use it as a prop should not be allowed to wear it in Parl.

I’m the first person to raise my hand if someone asks for a criticism of Justin Trudeau

But I can say with absolute certainty that if Pierre Poilievre had been PM during the worst part of the COVID-19 pandemic it would have been a disaster for Canadians

The #WarsawGhettoUprising began on April 19, 1943

It was a Passover Seder

Every year our family devotes part of the second Seder to the memory of the 6 million Jews murdered by the Nazis, and remembering the heroes of the uprising

Tonight, 3 #Holocaust survivors lit candles
