Alan Dershowitz, the prominent American lawyer, had a blunt assessment about Canada and the Carney government at a recent pro-Israel gathering in New York.
“We have to understand who our enemies are. And our enemy now is Canada,” he told the Post, at the second annual Rage Against Hate conference, Oct. 27, at Manhattan’s Museum of Jewish Heritage.
Canada earned his scorn because of its “recognition of a nonexistent entity,” referring to Palestine, and “not doing enough to combat antisemitism.”
And he noted Prime Minister Mark Carney’s Oct. 16 comments to British podcaster Mishal Husain on her podcast, saying Canada would honour the International Criminal Court’s arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and arrest him if he entered Canada.
Should such an arrest occur, Dershowitz vowed, “I will come up to Canada. I will defend Netanyahu, and I will go after everybody who has tried to arrest him.”
The Harvard law professor emeritus and civil liberties advocate was a speaker at the conference, produced by the Israel Law Center, which uses legal action worldwide to fight for the rights of victims of terror, and to seek compensation for violations of international law.
I wonder what Amira Elghawaby as Canada's first representative to combat Islamophobia would have to say about this?

WARMINGTON: Toronto synagogue targeted by antisemitic vandals 10th time — Toronto Sun
The mayor and the police say they are on it but no one in the community has any faith they will ever catch the Hamas supporters who run the streets and vandalize at will
This one is again Canadian centric, and weird.
Anastasia Zorchinsky is a Canadian citizen but she was born in Kfar Saba, in central Israel. However, she says in a Nov. 13 video posted on X that the official told her because of the “political conflict we cannot put Israel in your passport.”
Alternatively, she was told she could have indicated her birth country as Palestine, and that Kfar Saba was one of several cities that was allegedly caught by this policy shift, including Jerusalem.
Moreover, Zorchinsky was told this was a country-specific restriction – only affecting Israel.

…Doubting what she was told, Zorchinsky told National Post in an interview, she asked to see the policy supporting the official’s assertion. Then, she says, the employee went away and came back with a few colleagues who told her this change came about because Canada has recognized a state of Palestine?
She was also told there was an online list of the cities caught by the policy change.
Zorchinsky asked for a policy document that laid out the officials’ assertion. They provided nothing. “She (the passport employee) just said this without any support, no policy document. It was clear something was off.” Ultimately, the passport officials backed down and told her it was okay to designate Israel as her birth country.
“If I had just submitted my application, who knows what would have happened?” she asserts.

Then another weird Canada centric one. This follows a steady stream of posts by Adam (Zachareah’s father Adam Quraishi) claiming Israel wrongfully targeted his son. “He went hoping to save lives, confirmed by so many including our family doctor who talked to Zachareah. He was killed 12 hours after getting to Israel,” Adam wrote on a May 21 fundraiser posted to Facebook. He was killed by Israelis, said Adam Quraishi in a video, for “looking too Palestinian.”

EDITORIAL: Hamas gets a pass as it invades Canada — Toronto Sun
While it’s supposed to be illegal to contribute to 'any activity' by Hamas, the reality is it’s thriving in Canada
Terry Newman: Terrorism expert has a stark warning for Canada — National Post
Anti-Israel demonstrations and mass street prayers are about 'conquering the streets,' says Beni Sabti. 'This is something very, very dangerous'
This despite warnings from former federal Liberal justice minister Irwin Cotler, who describes the brotherhood as “a standing threat to Canadian national security, to Canadian values and to our own shared identity and commitment.”
As reported by the Toronto Sun‘s Bryan Passifiume, among those who want Canada to outlaw the Muslim Brotherhood is Imam Mohammad Tawhidi, head of the Global Imams Council.
“Let me be unequivocal,” Tawhidi said at a national conference on peace and security in Ottawa last week.
“(There is) no threat greater to national security today than the Muslim Brotherhood … in its reach … in its ideological influence … in its ability to infiltrate, manipulate and mobilize. This is not rhetoric, it is reality.”

Ok. Done. We’re good. Anyway, the horror of Bondi Beach could just as easily happen in Canada — because the conditions are the same: we have allowed antisemitism to grow unchecked and infect our society.
At least 15 killed and a gunman dead after attack at Jewish event on Sydney’s Bondi Beach — The Globe and Mail
Police say the gunmen were a 50-year-old man who was fatally shot by officers, and his 24-year-old son, who was wounded
Police pledged a “thorough” investigation, Lanyon (Mal Lanyon, New South Wales police commissioner) said. Authorities were not looking for anyone else in connection with the massacre, because “thorough.”
How was it foreseeable? Because Australia — just like Canada — has seen an explosion of antisemitism. In both countries, Jewish schools, businesses, and synagogues have been attacked. Pro-Hamas/anti-Israel protests are commonplace.
The leaders of both countries were warned that recognizing a Palestinian state would escalate Jew hatred.
“By effectively demonizing Israel, (Mark Carney) opened the floodgates for more antisemitic acts in Canada,” warned Jack Mintz in the National Post.
But Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Prime Minister Mark Carney went ahead anyway, recklessly, without adequate thought for the Jewish people, and with absolutely no regard for their safety.
Their sanctimonious posturing merely added to the festering hate that is staining both countries. It was less than two weeks ago that Jewish leaders from the world’s seven largest diaspora communities — including Canada — convened a task force in Sydney because of the rising tide of global antisemitism.
Michael Higgins: This is what the Islamists in our streets want — National Post
Mark Carney needs to wake up to reality that Canada could host its own Bondi Beach massacre
In the ADL statement, Richard Marceau, general counsel for Canada’s Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs, said, “Here in Canada, extremists have escalated their hatred and violence: openly glorifying Hamas ‘martyrs’ on our streets, attacking Jewish and pro-Israel students at events, harassing Jewish families outside their homes, and targeting synagogues and other Jewish institutions.
…& here I am out on the Canadian Prairies not able to even say that I’ve actually ever met a Jew in person. Maybe or maybe not?
“For these extremists, this was never only about Israel’s actions in Gaza; it is about instilling fear and sowing division within our society. Canada must stand with its international partners in confronting this threat — not only to counter antisemitism, but to safeguard the future of our democratic way of life for all people.”
Since the massacre of October 7, 2023, both countries have been swamped by Jew hatred.

U.S. officials thwart far-left New Year's Eve terror attack — Toronto Sun
"Turtle Island Liberation Front" is a far-left group espousing anti-West, anti-Israel philosophies
On Facebook, the Turtle Island Liberation Front describes themselves as being devoted to the “liberation of occupied Turtle Island and liberation of all colonized peoples across the world.”
I’m assuming the Jews, amongst select others, don’t qualify.
Far-left activists often incorporate anti-Israel, anti-capitalist and supposed pro-Indigenous aspects to their causes.Last September, parents of Grade 3 to 6 students at Toronto’s ALPHA Alternative Junior School were outraged to learn their students had been compelled to take part in a rally “in solidarity” with Grassy Narrows First Nation, carrying signs in a march that they made in class.
That rally promptly turned into an anti-Israel demonstration, with videos posted on social media showing students and teachers’ union activists marching alongside adults chanting “From Turtle Island to Palestine, occupation is a crime,” and children sent home with anti-Israel literature.
