The Toronto Star's decision to withhold the name of the shooter (Mohamed Mahdi) is a dereliction of journalistic duty. Toronto is awash in violence and lies against Jews. Every time Jews are harmed, liars claim Jews did it to themselves. It's The Star's job to refute the lies.

Mark Carney is seizing a costly Liberal majority that voters denied him, and doing so through backroom deals. In January, MP Gladu said that floor crossers should face voters in a byelection to give voters the final say. I could not agree more. She should do so. The people in her community voted for our Conservative vision of a Canada that is affordable, safe, and strong at home, not for the costly Liberal government she has now joined. She should honour her word and let voters decide.

A Jewish-owned restaurant shot at during Passover, the 12th antisemitic attack in this wave of hate. This is sick. After years of weak leadership, antisemitism is rising without consequence. We must stamp it out and make Canada safe for Jewish people, and all Canadians, to once again live and worship freely.

Kanye West has done more to normalize actual Nazism than anyone else this century. He weaponized his global fame against Jews everywhere, then walked it back by saying he has a Jewish friend. That friend, Jonah Hill responds by calling Kanye "the greatest artist ever." Pathetic.

My church in Toronto didn’t need these guys to keep us safe this week. But my friend’s synagogue did.

Anti-Jewish hate spikes in New York, downstream of Mamdani being elected, just as it has in Canada in the wake of Trudeau. Leaders who put a smiling, "progressive" gloss on antizionism clear the way for violence and hate.

Armed guards at synagogues and police outside restaurants shouldn’t be the baseline for a Jewish holiday in Canada. This is welcomed, but a democracy that normalizes protecting one community from targeted violence has already failed that community.

If this headline doesn’t shock you, that’s part of the problem. CTV News: Jewish-owned restaurant shot at overnight in Toronto's north end Another antisemitic attack on a Jewish-owned business in Toronto. This is vile. Enough is enough. ctvnews.ca/toronto/video/…

No Canadian flag. But a flag of a non existent state that is the raison d’être of banned terror groups like Hamas. But they regard Canada as an “illegitimate settler state” characterized by white supremacy and genocide. Tommy Douglas must be rolling over in his grave.

This exact imagery was used to dehumanize Jews in the lead up to the Holocaust. It's disgusting. I strongly condemn it. This type of hate has been allowed to foment by Canadian leaders who are too weak to stand up to the leaders of groups who propagate it.

I’m at a loss for words. Substitute ANY other group (women for example) and people would be falling over themselves to express concern, outrage, etc. For those of you sitting comfortably in your silence - be ashamed.

When someone showed up to the Freedom Convoy with a swastika, nearly every mainstream media organization reported on it. Unless I’ve missed it, I don’t see a single report on the open use of imagery that could’ve been plucked from the pages of Der Stürmer

The Edmonton mayor's recent ignorant comments help fuel anti-Semitism at a time when Jewish Canadians aren't feeling safe within their own homes. Good on Mike Elliott for this elegant statement that set the record straight. Leadership. @JewishEdmonton

I can’t help but see this as an admission of failure I.e. we can’t fix our broken culture and we’re not going to try, so here’s some money for bulletproof glass

Prime Minister: It’s time for a national address on antisemitism theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…

The synagogue I attended as a boy and youth, where I was bar mitzvah'd and received my primary Jewish education, now under gunfire in once-peaceable North York, Ontario.

Pretty in Pink was released 40 years ago. The original ending had Andie choosing Duckie. Test audiences hated it. John Hughes reshot the finale so she ends up with Blane instead, completely changing the romantic legacy of the film.

It’s impossible to overstate the brilliance, resilience, and ingenuity of Israel. A tiny country surrounded by belligerents, that in just over two years has largely eliminated the leadership and military capacity of Hamas, Hizbollah, and now the regional superpower of Iran. I will never forget being at the Auschwitz death camp to commemorate the 65th anniversary of its liberation. After the Mourners’ Kadish, a squadron of IDF F-15s flew over the camp at low altitude, piloted entirely by the grandsons of Holocaust survivors. Chills. In moments such as this, one truly grasps that “never again” is not an empty bromide. It is Israel’s raison d’être. It is what led to today’s astonishing intelligence and military success. Am Yisrael Chai! 🇮🇱
