Canada has seen unprecedented levels of antisemitism since Hamas’ October 7, 2023 jihad massacre.
B’nai Brith reports that antisemitism has reached record levels, and Israel’s Ambassador to Canada, Iddo Moed, said in March, at a synagogue that was shot at, that Canada is “one of the centres of antisemitism globally,” and that the shooting “intended to send a signal of intimidation to Canadian Jews.”
Hanging effigies of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir is also intended to rouse further hatred against the lone Jewish state, and intimidate Montreal Jews. It’s all part of the “globalize the intifada” movement.
“Hanging effigies of Netanyahu, Ben-Gvir paraded in Montreal,” by Canaan Lidor, JNS News, May 26, 2026:
Dozens of anti-Israel activists demonstrated on Sunday in Montreal, Canada, where they displayed hanging effigies of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir.
The Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs (CIJA), the advocacy group of Jewish Federations of Canada-UIA, protested the display, organized by the Montreal4Palestine group on Phillips Square on Sunday afternoon.
“Let us be clear: this is not a debate about the Middle East. Hanging effigies of Jews in the streets of Montreal evokes some of the darkest antisemitic imagery in history and is completely unacceptable. This is not ‘peaceful activism.’ It is the promotion of hatred and the incitement of violence that fuels the radicalization of our social climate. What will it take for authorities to treat these acts as the serious threat they are?” said CIJA.
In 2024, protesters burned an effigy of Netanyahu in Montreal, prompting then-prime minister Justin Trudeau to condemn their actions. “Canada’s government will not tolerate antisemitism,” he said.
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has not commented publicly on the latest display. On Tuesday, Carney’s office published a statement about his conversation with Israeli President Isaac Herzog, in which Carney complained about the treatment of anti-Israel activists who had been detained briefly in Israel last week after trying to breach Israel’s naval blockade on the Gaza Strip….

Mr. Itamar Ben-Gvir and another couple of influential Jews in Israel have called for Jews to pray on the Mount and to destroy all of the muzzie barracks.
In ancient Isael, there were several times the “land was cleansed” of satanic worship.

I am rooting for him to succeed Netanyahu, who has served long enough. Either him or Smotrich
Big Dude says
Canada.. none is too many
Montreal is now Berlin 1936
Wait til the real feelings emerge
Thus is the real Canada…

A lot of Western cities are vying for that dubious distinction – London, Paris, Madrid, New York, Minneapolis,….. I think you’re being too generous in giving Montreal that honor

I live here, and I can tell you that it is. For my own part, I pulled a big “stop the genocide!” sign off someone’s lawn just a few days ago, breaking the plastic and twisting the thick wires into a nice big tangle before stuffing it in the nearest trashcan. I would have done exactly the same if the sign had a big swastika and read, “Jews out!” because I don’t see any difference.
Happy to note that the next time I walked by it hadn’t been replaced. I want these people to think twice and yes – to be afraid.

Thank you so much!
Very good job.

I am partly conflicted on this. There is a Libertarian part of me that says that if it is his property, he should be at liberty to put whatever garbage he likes, since it is his lawn. Otoh, I’m pretty aware that if someone dared put up a similar message such as “Ban islam” or “Deport every muslim”, that same grace would not be extended the other way. As a result, I wouldn’t criticize you, even if in a perfect world, I’d be perfectly fine w/ someone putting a “Stop the Genocide” sign and another putting up a “mohammedans OUT!” sign
OLD GUY says
What will it take for the Americas and Europe to wake up to the dangers and hatred of Islam and its followers against all other religious and non religious people. Islam and Nazism are hard to tell the difference in their ideology your either with them or you are disposables trash.
