“The government ignored people treating Jewish people badly, and now it is out of control. In just one week, people hung effigies of Jews, called for an end to Canada's Jewish community, and tore down posters of a missing Jewish girl. I want the government to admit this is a crisis.”

“Mr. Speaker, the Liberal government spent years ignoring and enabling anti-Semitism in Canada. We are now watching the consequences unfold in real time. In a single week in the country, effigies of Jews were hung in Montreal in the streets, while genocidal slogans were chanted. Government-funded organizations openly discussed a Jew-free Canada. Posters of a missing 14-year-old girl were torn down because she was Jewish. That is in just one week in Canada. Will any member on that side of the House get up and admit that we are in a full-blown crisis?”

“We already have laws, and this bill will not stop the violence on our streets. The Prime Minister is doing nothing while synagogues are attacked and hate continues. I want to know what it will take for the government to finally act.”

“Mr. Speaker, we all know the laws exist. The member opposite knows full well that Bill C-9 and anything he mentioned would not have stopped a single thing that happened in the streets. We already know the Prime Minister will not act because he has not acted. In fact, he did not say a thing last week. More effigies will be hung, more firebombs will be thrown into synagogues and more Liberal MPs will pose for pictures with those who glorify terrorism. The question is not whether the government will finally call this a crisis. We know they will not. The question is how much more needs to happen in order for anybody to do anything.”
