🚨Another attack on a Jewish institution today in Toronto. A Jewish girl's school is the latest target. Two men opened fire, shooting 5 rounds at Bais Chaya Mushka Elementary School. Can we be surprised that violence escalates when there is no deterrence following antisemitic attacks on Jewish students?
As #Hanukkah's eight days begin, I would like to send my best wishes to Ontario's vibrant and valued Jewish community.
This year, Hannukah celebrations for many families will not be as bright or celebratory as they ought to be. For all those struggling and mourning, I hope that the spirit of Hannukah, of bringing light into darkness, is fulfilled this holiday season. Let us not forget the stories of miracles and hope that the Jewish community have blessed us with.
Chag Hanukkah sameach!
We must continue to protect dogs across Ontario at all costs. 🐶
By introducing the PUPS Act, we are taking necessary steps to crack down on puppy mills and those mistreating our four-legged family members.

The blood of dead babies - Israeli & Palestinian - is on #Hamas.
Rhetoric like PM @JustinTrudeau's today enables Hamas to continue to cynically & criminally use the Palestinian civilian population as human shields to advance its genocidal goal. And, while surely not his intent, such assertions also fuel #Antisemitism at home here in #Canada.
Unless #Israel destroys Hamas, Hamas will continue to destroy the hopes of Palestinians & Israelis alike to pursue a future of peace.
If Canada wants to contribute to the goal of sustainable peace, it will stand firmly with Israel as it toils to remove the murderous Hamas regime from Gaza. Anything less condemns the region to perpetual suffering for all.
Prime Minister - there can be no half measures in the struggle to rid the region of Hamas, as painful as that may be & despite Israel’s extensive measures to minimize civilian casualties that go beyond those required by international law. #cdnpoli
Seen on Bloor Street in the heart of Toronto. Defamation is a crime. The targeting of an individual because of her religious identity is a hate crime. The perpetrators of this crime MUST be brought to justice. Nazi era hate tactics make Canada unsafe for all Jews.
NEW: Premier Doug Ford calls CUPE President Fred Hahn "an anti-semite"
"He supports Hamas, he's disgusting," Ford says in the Ontario legislature.

This is not Canada. It is totally unacceptable to target a business because it is owned by a member of the Jewish community. This is Antisemitism and it must be condemned.

The hate rallies celebrating the kidnapping and slaughtering of innocent Israeli people by terrorists are reprehensible and disgusting. They have no place in Ontario. Now more than ever, we stand with Israel and affirm its right to defend itself and its people.
To the countless Ontarians who volunteer their time to support those in need. Thank you.
I recently toured the impressive Provincial Emergency Operations Centre (PEOC) with @fordnation.
We are making sure the province is ready to handle any emergency situation by providing emergency response teams the tools they need to keep communities and families safe.
It's truly an amazing thing to watch a leader turn his lived experience into decisions that improve the lives of the people of this province.
That's what @PrabSarkaria does every day.
Proud of you boss. Keep killing it 💪🏻
Under the leadership of @fordnation our government is driving innovation, job creation and economic development by modernizing public sector procurement in Ontario!
We have a responsible approach when it comes to every dollar spent to ensure we are building a stronger Ontario.
Safety starts with being prepared & having a plan.
This week is Emergency Preparedness Week, and we’re asking Ontarians for three things to keep you & your households safe:
1. Develop a plan
2. Build an emergency kit
3. Stay informed
