Jewish Canadians facing rising antisemitism might have President Donald Trump’s support for an expedited legal pathway into the United States.
Trump shared a report on the plan Sunday with his millions of followers on Truth Social, amplifying the appeal as Christian lawmakers and religious leaders press his administration to act because of a “disproportionate” amount of antisemitic incidents north of the U.S. border.
The National Association of Christian Lawmakers (NACL) founder and President Jason Rapert told Fox News Digital from Israel on Sunday morning that he wants Trump to press Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney directly on the perceived “roadblocks” set up against the “quick recognition of the plight” of thousands of Jewish Canadians fearing for their safety.
Canada, which recently had a broadcaster reject the use of the word “terrorism” with regard to 9/11 coverage, has reported nearly 7,000 antisemitic incidents in a country of roughly 41 million people.
More Zionazis. Yey.
Call a place antisemitic and he gets a free war apparently.
“We will find out” if Canada is getting in the way of the more than 2,000 Jewish Canadians who have expressed interest in relocating, Rapert said.
The article talks about relocation to the US, and points to this article: https://nationalpost.com/opinion/michael-a-sachs-some-jewish-canadians-planning-exit-strategies-to-more-welcoming-u-s
The announcement refusing to scrap the Digital Service Tax ,along with the recent declaration by Prime Minister Mark Carney to recognize a Palestinian state, are but two examples where some might say that Canada unnecessarily provoked negotiations during a delicate moment.
So the roadblock to people leaving canada to the US is the poor relationship with the US. :|
ETA the “terrorism” bit:
CBC’s reporting on terrorism, wherever it occurs, has always been guided by the principle of attribution, and like other major news organizations, it has been our practice for decades. The reason for the extreme care around the use of the words “terrorist” and “terrorism” was detailed in this earlier editor’s blog.
