Guess Which City Is the Antisemitism Capital of North America

When it comes to antisemitism, it’s usual to think of parts of the Middle East, Russia during the pogroms, or 1940s Germany. The word “antisemite” doesn’t often conjure images of toques, poutine, and people registering their discontent with cries of “Tabernac!“

But that’s what you should be thinking of because it seems now that the biggest hotbed of antisemitism in North America is… Montreal.

There is an old saying that when the United States sneezes, Canada catches a cold. Recent events in Canada, however, suggest that the US should immunize itself from a dangerously virulent virus that has swept across the nation — nowhere more so than in Montreal: Open Jew hatred.

According to the Toronto Sun, last year, Montreal has endured the most antisemitic hate crimes of any city in North America.

Indeed, since the October 7, 2023 Hamas massacre in Israel, antisemitic incidents in Canada have increased by an astounding 670%.

Canadian Jews — a miniscule 1.4% of the nation’s population — were the victims of 70% of religious-based hate crimes during roughly the same period.

That’s unsettling.

I spent some time in Montreal in the mid-teens, and don’t remember any particular tensions, but then we were pretty focused on getting in, running some seminars on change management, and getting out again. But Montreal, full of notoriously polite Canadians?

Well, not so much; not anymore.

The Quebec government has long fretted about protecting its French linguistic heritage.

As a result, they have opened their borders to hundreds of thousands of immigrants from French-speaking Islamic nations who might otherwise not share the secular and liberal values that define Quebec society, and who hail from societies defined by ubiquitous Jew hatred.

As long as the conquerors speak French, the eventual erasure of the host society will surely be painless.

The adage “demography is destiny” is veridical for a reason.

Ay, there’s the rub. Import millions of immigrants from these “French-speaking Islamic nations,” and you can expect a portion – likely a large portion – of them to retain their antisemitic views.

And, in Canada, the invaders seem to have found a sympathetic ear.

(Canadian Prime Minister Justin) Trudeau’s desire to exhibit Islamophilic tendencies is so pronounced that whenever a grave antisemitic incident takes place, he is quick to remind us that we must combat Islamophobia (such as he did after shots were fired at a pair of Jewish schools in Montreal last year.)

But it’s actually antisemitism that is running rampant across Montreal, a city now filled with intimidating protests against “Zionism.”

Who is expressing any “Islamophobic” views in Montreal, or Quebec for that matter, right now? But as noted above, Canada and Montreal, in particular, are seeing a horrifying spike in Jew hatred.

I’ve always found this attitude puzzling. Most of the Jews I’ve known, including one of my wife’s best friends, have been some of the most considerate, inoffensive people around. But then, I don’t understand any blanket hate for any group of people. One of the things my father pounded into my thick young head was to take each person as an individual and judge them accordingly; that to judge by a group based on innate characteristics was the act of a fleawit. But that sure seems to be the case in Montreal.

This is going to be a problem for Canada, maybe for decades to come. They chose to do this; to allow near-unchecked immigration from the Third World. The time may well come when our northern border suffers just as much threat as our southern border.

And, in large part, we have not only the Third World “immigrants” but also Justin Trudeau to thank for it.
