@Raptors I recognize this technology - 📅

@harleyf @startupfest Sorry this happened. Thank you for continuing to put yourself out there and being a leader for our community.

[Jon Wolkin @jwolkin]

I would pay a lot to watch Jerry, Larry and Sandler just watch the game. So good.

Larry David reacts to the now forgotten Josh Hart miss.

@WabKinew Despicable coming from a Canadian premier.

@kshahrooz Thank you Kaveh. As a parent of kids at this school I wish it wasn’t there but we live in a reality where it’s needed. Peers can’t believe that in CANADA (not the US) this is something that’s necessary. We live in this country for its freedom, peace and safety. This is not normal

[Harley Finkelstein @harleyf]

If you can’t call out antisemitism clearly, you are part of the problem.

Canada is drifting.
And now the world is noticing.

“More synagogues… desecrated, burned, shot at… than in any other country.”
“We’re witnessing a polite pogrom.”

Read that again.

That should stop us in our tracks.

@USATODAY @BringHershHome A hero!

[Jon Wolkin @jwolkin]

The words spoken here about our country and community from an elected leader is just as important as the action being taken. We need ours Leaders to step up and be explicit about where this hate leads us and why all Canadians should want no part in it!

This afternoon, I’ve instructed my Attorney General to pursue an injunction against the Al-Quds Day demonstration planned for Toronto.

Hate, violence and intimidation have no place on the streets of Canada and our government will fight it however we can.

[Jon Wolkin @jwolkin]

@markmulroney @ddebow Thank you for speaking out. It’s becoming very clear from recent conversations with peers that the average Canadian has no idea what’s happening. I don’t blame them for living their lives but more people need to bring attention to this.

My latest: A walk through the shocking explosion of anti-Semitism in Toronto since 10/7, and the combined failures of the Canadian justice system and the counterproductive behavior of the political class https://t.co/nepTYCDcys

@TorontoPolice How about cancel it?!

[Jon Wolkin @jwolkin]

@saifmahamood @fahdananta I don't believe 'for the last 10 years' is at all accurate. I'll concede there were some years where people were arrested, however, we will likely disagree on whether they were reacting to some agitation or instigation.

[Jon Wolkin @jwolkin]

@harleyf @nationalpost Thanks for speaking up and being a consistent advocate for the Canadian Jewish community.

[Jon Wolkin @jwolkin]

@Sirupsen Congrats!

[Jon Wolkin @jwolkin]

@markrmcqueen @RobynUrback Thanks @markrmcqueen for your consistent moral courage these past two years. My 7 y/o daughter asked 2 days ago why the Police trailer was still outside her school & not at the police station. Shameful that it took Bondi for MSM to take a moral stand with clear language.
