Antisemitic incidents have Jewish community on edge: ‘Jews in Canada have felt under attack’

Antisemitic incidents across Canada have Canadian Jews and advocates on edge.

“The voices of the vast majority of Canadians — including faith, business and political leaders — need to be heard before it’s too late. All Canadians must come together against this growing surge of antisemitism,” wrote Deborah Lyons, the Special Envoy on Holocaust Remembrance and Combating Antisemitism, on X.

Lyons, who is also a former ambassador to Israel, was responding to a recent wave of vandalism and threats to Jewish schools, businesses, and synagogues.
