We preserve and strengthen the quality of Jewish life in Greater Toronto, Canada, Israel and around the world through philanthropic and professional leadership.
Today and always, we honour our veterans and all who made the ultimate sacrifice for Canada. We remember their courage, their service, and their dedication to the freedoms we cherish. Lest we forget.
Standing together against antisemitism and hate matters now more than ever.
Italian Canadian business and community leaders have come together to launch Italians Stand Against Antisemitism and Hate, an initiative demonstrating solidarity with Canada's Jewish community.
These leaders are using their voices to make it clear that antisemitism and hate have no place in Canada.
We thank them for their leadership and encourage others to amplify their message.
Today, the Ethiopian Jewish community celebrates Sigd, a meaningful holiday marking the renewal of the covenant between the Jewish people and the Torah. Rooted in generations of prayer and yearning for Jerusalem, Sigd honours the community’s enduring faith, heritage and connection to Israel.
Today, we mark 88 years since Kristallnacht, the Night of Broken Glass. On November 9–10, 1938, a wave of orchestrated violence swept across Germany, marking a devastating escalation of Nazi persecution. Synagogues and Jewish-owned businesses were destroyed. Jews were beaten and murdered, and thousands were arrested.
As antisemitism continues to rise around the world, including here in our own city, we remember the lessons of history and stand together as a strong, resilient Jewish community, committed to standing against hatred.
