Report: Canada anti-Semitism at all-time high    Ohad Pas
31. I live in Quebecstan and to tell the truth its getting a bit
strange here. Canada is a great country, big as the world with tons of natural resources. However over the past 40 years, starting in the late 60's under Trudeau, Canada has enacted an immigration policy that can be best described as "PC ON STEROIDS". Quebec especially has adopted the Arab Masses with a zeal and lust that has made my life not that pleasant. I live in a mixed Jewish Philipino community with tons of Shuls and kosher food outlets, however I spend my day working in the east end and other parts of the city of Montreal. The truth is I dont feel comfortable as I see many many Arabs (300k +) who have ineffect established their own communities and areas where were you a Jew and wearing a kippa may just get you harmed in a very serious way. There have been reports where young Jews have been beaten up in the Metro Stations of St-Laurent. That is the face of the new QUEBECSTAN. I as a Jew have never felt so insecure in Canada and I have travelled all over the USA and Canada in my work experience. To be sure Quebec is changing and truth be told I dont like it...I guess its time to leave.

32. What is PC and what isn't PC in Canada
It is extremely PC to be accommodating to Muslims. The more the better. We have the TV show "Little Mosque on the Prairie" , where Caucasians are shown as bigoted clowns, while Muslims are just nice folk trying to be good Canadians. It is extremely non-PC to be sympathetic to Israel. It may even be hazardous to your health, as the York University attack on Jewish students proved recently. It is PC to "understand" cultural differences that should dismay us (Shariah law). It is non-PC to criticize them.

33. Quebecstan
The problem with French quebecers is that they are so blinded by their wishes to make Quebec become a only-french-speaking nation, that the government of this province choose to attract North-African emigrants. So, may be into two decades, Quebec will feel sorrows for letting them settle down... Eurabia is now what will look like Canada.

34. The irony of Canada and Quebecstan
For many years, Canada vehemently rejected the desire of the Quebecois to have their own soverein nation. Now, at the rate by which Quebecstan attracts Arabs into it - I wouldn't be surprised if Canada would actually encourage Quebec to separate.

36. Anti-semetism
Anti semitism is not confined to Arabs or Moslems. I am neither and I am an anti-semite. In fact I am an anti moslem and anti-christian too. I am anti- all you religeous people who are anti-human. Viva le Reveloution.

I can agree with you Will- your statement does make sense- more than most of the others. I was too young to realize what was going on during WW2- but I have not lived in isolation since.... I am aware of what is happening in the world. (m doesn't think so, LOL) I have noticed that intolerance has gone up everywhere- so if we count every anti-semitic incident (like ADL and Bnai Brith are doing exclusively)- it would be only fair, to acknowledge incidents against all ethnic groups, races, religions, age groups, gender etc. ,you get the idea. I can understand why a Jewish newspaper would print only about Jewish problems- however- I noticed in reading European newspapers that there is almost equal time given to all - local, country, European, Mid-East, Israel, Arab countries...and yes the rest of the world...and they are NOT all against Israel. To be fair and get a balanced view one would need to have a statistic including ALL groups-. While anti-semitism possibly has gone up... there has been also a marked increase in general incidents of racism and violence due to economic hardship and just plain crime....I see graffitis and they are against just about everybody and anything under the sun...The 'I love Hitler' graffiti? Well it is neo-Nazi- but they are against a lot of other things besides Jews... including most normal people. I have lived in Canada, the States, and Europe- believe me there is NO perfect place on earth-.

38. as a ex montrealer,the cntu union has alwaybeen antisemitic
The problem in quebec and ontario is that these 2 provinces let in the thousands of immigrants of the muslim world, quebec with the french speaking muslim world and ontario with the english ones, during the 40's canada had the strictest immigration laws in the world,turning away thousands of jews escaping nazi germany.now the gates are wide open,they are letting in hundreds of thousands of arabs from around the world.most are anti semitic, anti american and anti canadian. god help us,oh canada

39. Suicide to encourage Quebec to leave Canada
There is only one reason Canada has been able to resist the strong pull to integrate into the US over the years. That is the French fact, quite frankly the Americans would not want them. The day Quebec leaves Canada is the day we all start on the road to the 51st state.

40. Madoff affair
reading the reaction of Jews to the Madoff affair (Ynet article- interview with Madoff lawyer etc...) I am wondering what the ADL and Bnai Brith would call it. One Jewish victim of Madoff's mismanagment said: ..... I wish your family had been killed by the Nazis--- not a direct quote but close.... if a non-Jewish person had said this it would be anti-semitism, if a Jew says this about another Jew- is it anti-semitism too- and permitted in this case? Is this counted as an anti-semitic statement in ADL's and Bnai Brith's American statistics?

No other ethnic or religious group has ever faced extinction or constant abuse at the hands of so many as has the Jew. Islam suffered greatly at the hands of medieval Christians as did the Jew. To their credit they graciously allowed the Christians to walk away when they finally took back Jerusalem at the end of the great War of the Cross even though the Christians put everyone, Jew and Muslim alike, to the sword when they entered Jerusalem. But the Jew has suffered century after century facing holocausts in nearly every generation since before the days of King David and all because of jealousy and fear of the unknown. We today are facing the greatest upcoming challenge to our existence.... if you can believe there can be something worse then Hitler's final solution. We must remain strong and adamantly faithful to Ha-Shem's ways or we will be lost. I wish I could adequately explain how desperateIy I want you to realize this, but try to understand while only a few groups and nations actively pursue the destruction of the ways of Judaism, almost everyone will turn their backs when the time comes to stand up for us. So... remember your roots and pray at least three times a day for the return of us to Ha-Shem's good graces and protection against the dogs of death and destruction. Celebrate Purim, honor Passover, keep the mitzvots to your best ability and thank Ha-Shem daily for your very life.
