—Quebec 2023. Not Germany 1933.
Quebec so far this week:
• Synagogue firebombed
• Imam says Jews should be exterminated
• Pro-Palestinian screams “kike” at Jewish student
• Professor calls Jewish student “a whore,” says go back to Poland
• Two Jewish schools hit with gunfire
And it’s only Thursday.
I remember reading Mordecai Richler’s books, and he was one of my favourite authors. He talked about anti-semitism in Quebec, but I thought that was from a different time. How can this be happening in 2023? Where are our leaders?

Lets be honest. I’m from Quebec as I am sure some of you are….is anyone surprised at the anti sematic violence in the Province? No different from when I was young.
Warren,
We can preface the whole thing with the iron-clad fact that antisemitism exists is all Canadian jurisdictions, not just Quebec. But here in Quebec it has roots that go all the way back to Duplessis and perhaps earlier.
EHWAL says where are our leaders? In short, in Quebec, nowhere. We live in a jurisdiction where our Premier says absolutely no racism exists in Quebec! Right, tell me another one…so example comes from the top and here the premier totally abdicates his responsibility to a) admit it exists and b) call it out for what it is…
The so called progressives show their true colours.
Justin’s old man has a lot of inconvenient history when it comes to fascism.
Martin,
In Quebec, at least 70% of the clergy was with Pétain rather than with de Gaulle. Need I say more?
The Resistance wasn’t even supported by a majority in France.
As for P-E-T, he was more CCF than anything else and he stupidly dabbled in German memorabilia in time of war. But he wasn’t by any stretch of the imagination a fascist.
A Trudeau cabinet minister wants Israel to negotiate with Hamas, with Qatar as moderator.

Mr Trudeau, Ms Joly, FYI, Hamas has repeatedly said they will repeat Oct 7, quote “a million times”.
Why Mr Trudeau and Ms Joly, do you want to facilitate more Hamas attacks?
Peter,
First Xi chews out HimselfTM for being a first-class moron. Then Biden did. Obviously, Bibi will be the next one to do it and no doubt he won’t be the last.
Are you new to Canada or something? Don’t you know that any criticism of Quebec culture automatically makes you a racist?
