Dear Editor:
We need to stand up against anti-semitism. If we do not speak out, pur silence emboldens nutcase home-grown terrorists.
Here in North America, who think it’s okay to kill Jews?
Here in Canada, Canadians are tolerating an alarming increase in attacks on synagogues, schools and places of business, with few consequences for the perpetrators. These are hate crimes, that should incur swift punishment and shame on those who commit these criminal acts.
We need to crack down on this hatred, starting with making sure it’s not in our schools. Where does this hatred come from? It is the exact opposite of our Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
I encourage everyone to speak out.
Claudette Stevens,
Southgate
