Federal Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangeree says Ottawa will address complaints from Jewish groups about delayed funding for security measures and will tighten its hate laws, after bullets were fired at three Toronto-area synagogues over the past week.
“When they attack a synagogue, they attack Canada,” Mr. Anandasangeree told reporters on Sunday in front of the Shaarei Shomayim synagogue, which was shot at in the early hours of Saturday morning in the North York area of Toronto. Minutes earlier, a synagogue in nearby Thornhill, Beth Avraham Yoseph of Toronto, had also been targeted.
