North York councillor James Pasternak was the target of suspected antisemetic threats earlier this month, his office has confirmed to CP24.

On Tuesday, police announced that they charged a man after he allegedly contacted the constituency office of a local councillor over the phone and made “several antisemitic threatening comments towards them.”

The incident, which police are calling hate-motivated, happened on March 9.
