2. Jewish were real refugees. First Natives were real victims.
Steve Benassi ,   Minneapolis   (11.08.18)
They are the only ones deserving an apology.

The rest are economic migrants.
3. Too little too late..the PM is a stuttering fool

Canada is changing very quickly and is becoming a non entity for it's Jewish population.

Not withstanding the financial success of some Jews, Jews in general are despised even hated by a vast majority of Canadians.

Quebec has a very large Moslem population.

They are today front row and center in the liberal party.

Trudeau much like his father has a very non committal attitude towards Jews.

Those are the facts.

ISRAEL IS the only future. I'm glad MY children are in Israel.

I'll end up dying here, but that's ok as long as my children are in Israel.

6. AND WHAT ABOUT THE JEWISH AGENCY?
FO ,   Belgium   (11.08.18)
Did the Left oriented Jewish Agency intervene in this mater, requesting the St. Louis to be directed to Palestine? Although being under treacherous British Third White Paper policy, the Jewish Agency had still a possible quota of 15.000 immigrants per year! Or were the 907 passengers aboard the St Louis considered as rabble? I refer to an article written by Moshe Shertok (later Moshe Sharett, second Israeli PM) criticizing Jabotinsky's so-called "illegal immigration" trying to save any Jew, young, old... and wrote "bring in the good, and leave the rabble” (By good, Shertok meant Marxist educated young people). Read "the Seventh Million" by Tom Segev. I can’t find any intervention of the Jewish Agency concerning the St. Louis!

12. Such Cosmic Hypocrisy from a Genocidal Terrorist Supporter.
Paul Campbell ,   Brighton, Sussex, UK   (11.08.18)
What a disgusting creep. This is a longstanding genocide-permission of GENUINE refugees by a shameless, anti-Semitic WW2 Canada - after apologising to terrorists and handing out $10.3 million to a Guantanamo terrorist thug. Most of the people on the ship died in the concentration and extermination camps. Such cosmic hypocrisy, Trudeau. An insult, more than a reconciliation. Gesture politics in the extreme. Where's their, or their children's, compensation, Justin? Are you going to hand out $100 millions to the few survivors, as if you can buy a clean conscience? Not on the agenda, for sure. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-46105488

Dear Canada,
Pls accept Jerusalem as Israel capital and then maybe Jews wil forgive you.
