Show Notes
Interview with former Montreal Councilman and
current Canadian Bnai Brith leader, Marvin Rotrand, to discuss
antisemitic Palestinianist activism at the University of Toronto and the Toronto school System. On the University of Toronto Campus, The Student Union of Toronto at Scarborough passed a resolution in support of BDS, calling on the University to sever all ties with ANY organization they deem supports the state of Israel. This included ending Kosher catering for the University’s Jewish students.
In May of 2021, Jewish students at the U of T Medical school filed a complaint alleging defamatory and libelous comments directed at them from fellow medical students and faculty. Adding insult to injury, the school’s “anti-discrimination” czar, Ritika Goel, is a BDS supporter who has called support for Israel, a “barbaric cultural practice.”
Earlier this December, a Jewish Toronto District School Board Trustee named Alexandra Lulka, who raised the alarms over antisemitic material distributed by another trustee, was the target of a Censure for calling out the antisemitism, which was acknowledged by the “Integrity Commissioner.”
