30 Jewish organizations issue statement in support of UN Human Rights Rapporteur Albanese, who has been under relentless attack from politically motivated organizations waging toxic campaigns to silence her and undermine her human rights mandate. 🧵1/10 @FranceskAlbs @mehdirhasan

Hi, Jews here. Canada’s ongoing treatment of Indigenous peoples 100% constitutes genocide, you genocide denying prick

BREAKING: One hundred of us - Jewish Canadians and allies including IJV members - have occupied a parliamentary building in Ottawa to demand Canada stop arming and participating in Israel's genocide against Palestinians. @JewsSayNo

We stand with Dr. Ge and join his calls for the immediate release of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, who was kidnapped by Israeli forces after refusing to leave his patients in the besieged Kamal Adwan Hospital.

My name is Dr. Yipeng Ge. I am a family doctor. I am calling for the immediate release of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya. He was abducted by the Israeli forces. I am calling for protection of hospitals and medical workers in Gaza. And an end to the genocide. #FreeDrHussamAbuSafiya

Yesterday, @JustinTrudeau declared he's a Zionist. For those of us puzzled by Canada’s silence on Gaza’s genocide, this is no surprise. Zionism, like Canadian settler-colonialism, is rooted in displacement and oppression. As a PM who claims to recognize colonial crimes here, we

Once again, CIJA leaves out the key facts to paint demonstrators as antisemitic. There are pro-genocide, IDF soldiers speaking in that building, and Jewish demonstrators among those protesting outside. The protest is against Israel and its ongoing violence, not Jewish Montreal.

Joint statement with @FederationCJA HAPPENING NOW: An aggressive and physically intimidating mob is surrounding the Jewish community's central building in Cote-des-Neiges. The demonstrators are attempting to block access to the building and are harassing those trying to enter.

Thank you to MP McPherson for stating the truth: that cutting UNRWA funding is a form of collective punishment and abandonment of human beings in extreme need.

Liberals stop funding to UNRWA, a lifeline for millions innocent civilians, the day ICJ ruled there is risk of genocide in Gaza. Children will die b/c of 🇨🇦 decision. Why are Canada’s Liberals siding with the Conservatives to abandon Palestinians in their greatest hour of need?

Right now, IDF soldiers are speaking at Montreal’s Holocaust museum, promoting Israel’s agenda as it continues to commit genocide against Palestinians. How shameful to welcome perpetrators and enablers of ethnic cleansing into a space honouring victims of genocide.

Calling @FranceskAlbs’s important work telling the truth about genocide in Gaza “Holocaust distortion” is outrageous & insulting. Many Jews, including Shoah survivors & descendants, are compelled by our collective memory of the Holocaust to fight for an end to Israeli genocide

As a former UN official, as the Special Envoy for Preserving Holocaust Remembrance and Combatting Antisemitism, and as a Canadian, I am horrified to see a United Nations Special Rapporteur, Francesca Albanese, engage in Holocaust distortion and inversion. While I recognize the

Tomorrow night, *Jewish* activists have announced a demonstration against an event promoting the sale of illegally settled land in occupied Palestine, which this synagogue is hosting. THAT is inappropriate and unacceptable. 1/2

The Spanish & Portuguese synagogue in my riding is over 250 years old. Over 10 generations of Jewish Canadians have felt safe in that building. Tomorrow night anti-Israel protesters have announced a protest outside the building. Completely inappropriate & unacceptable 1/2

Quickly, how was the hospital "targeted," and what actual damage to Jewish individuals and communities took place? From where we're standing, this "vile display" looks pretty kosher.

#Antisemitism on the streets of #Toronto is spiraling out of control. The fact that a hospital was targeted makes yesterday's protest that much more egregious. Thank you @JustinTrudeau for denouncing this vile display.
