Senator Paula Simons🇨🇦Yesterday in Ottawa, I had the opportunity to attend a remarkable & thoughtful panel on online hate, hosted by the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs, as part of a major national conference they are hosting on the scourge of antisemitism. Today, I welcomed a delegation from the Jewish Federation of Edmonton to the Senate, where they heard me speak on the ugly parallels between transphobia campaigns and antisemitism. #CIJA #antisemitism #Ottawa #yow #Edmonton #yeg #Canada
Tonight, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is speaking to the delegates, denouncing Hamas terror, reaffirming Canada’s support for Israel, and saying clearly that Hamas does not speak for nor represent the legitimate aspirations of the Palestinian people. He denounces antisemitism and says all Canadians must fight against it. #CIJA #FaceItFightIt #Canada #Ottawa #cdnpoli #Jewish #antisemitism
