Another incredible school visit in the books! First time for every single student in a synagogue - we had such a great time together! They visited a Sikh Temple before us and a Mosque afterwards. No better way to build bridges than to get to know your neighbours better!
This broke my heart. Today, families of hostages with a very powerful loudspeaker yelled out to their loved ones held in Gaza with the hope they could hear them and be their voice. Bring. Them. HOME. 🎗️ Video: Avi Ron, Adar Eyal, Moshe Tayar Edit: Ram Shemi
It was a huge honour to have an @OttawaPolice team at our tournament this year. We are so grateful to all of you today and everyday. And I second @OPApresident’s comments, it’s why we started Hockey Against Hate!!
A great event to raise money for our community. Thank you Rabbi Scher @RabbiScher and your team for including the Ottawa Police. We need to eliminate hate in sports and in society as a whole. It's all about building bridges and collaboration!
Ahavas Chinam = unconditional love
a teaching from ram daas to think about over the next few days as we work on ahavas chinam: When you go out into the woods and you look at trees, you see all these different trees. And some of them are bent, and some of them are straight, and some of them are evergreens,
To all of Israel’s olympians and paralympians - we are rooting for you, we are praying for you, we are so proud of you, and we salute your incredible courage and strength! Am Yisrael Chai!
A moving commercial by El Al Airlines reassuring that #Israel and its athletes are never alone, as we gear up for the 2024 #Paris Olympic and #Paralympic games! Am Yisrael Chai! 🇮🇱🎥Video: elalisrael
This ad was a gut punch. Ppl the wrld over luv dancing all nite in the desert w/ their friends & loved 1s…Israelis do 2. But instead of dancing, they saw their loved ones massacred, raped & taken hostage @Nova festival on 10/7. The tape on her lips reads: I just wanted to dance
As the Jewish Rep to the @CanadianArmy & chaplaincy, I joined reps from many spiritual traditions in Canada at #CFBBorden 2 discuss & action how to best support our troops, inclusion, & effectively combating any form of hatred and discrimination in its ranks. A tremendous honour!
An invitation to schools in or around Ottawa: We’re concerned about rising hate, most significantly Jew hatred. We invite you to bring your students 2 learn about their Jewish neighbours in our synagogue w/ me - a concrete step towards combatting hate. 2 recent visits in photos
We weren’t sure how we would celebrate Israel’s independence this year. How would snap out of what feels like seven months of the pain of Israel’s Remembrance Day… then the girls of our community took the stage… with pride and with joy, the next generation! Am Yisrael Chai!
Thank you Mayor @_MarkSutcliffe and the @OttawaPolice for preserving our freedom to gather safely in our beloved city!
Like all residents of our city, Ottawa’s Jewish community deserves to gather whenever it chooses in an environment that is free from hate, violence, and racism. This is fundamental to a city that is free and democratic. Over the past two days, I have listened carefully to members…
The population of World Jewry today (~15.7 Million) is still lower than it was in 1939 (~16.6 Million). Its not just the 6 million lives snatched away by evil, its their children, and their children's children. 85 years later we are still rebuilding We will never stop rebuilding
Last year, on Erev Pesach, Montreal experienced an ice storm which downed trees, cutting wires and electricity. One resident looked ahead, saving a branch from a downed tree and using it to create a Kos Shel Eliyahu that will grace his table this year, a reminder that challenges…
Contents of the motion for “peace & Justice”: all you need to do is murder, torture, & rape as many innocent people as you possibly can (Hamas, oct 7) & Canada will reward you with your own state…. then you get to do it again & again, this time knowing that Canada has your back.
Tomorrow, New Democrats are bringing a motion for peace and justice in the Middle East to Parliament. For months we've watched the horror unfold. Canada has a responsibility to save lives. I need you to fill Justin Trudeau's inbox and demand he support our motion.
These conversations are so important. More Canadians need to be aware of the hate that is being spewed all over our country. No one should feel comfortable living in a society where hate is allowed to go unchecked.
“We see a direct trend between what people are allowed to say & what people feel they are allowed to do. There’s a very clear reason why #antisemitism is sky rocketing.” @RabbiScher speaks with @am640’s @gregbradyTO about the hate rally on Parliament Hill megaphone.link/CORU7909803447
For those that missed this last year.... unfortunately, even more relevant now
Last year, we launched this ad to show one example of how to stand up to hate — and it will air again today during the Super Bowl pregame show. Today, we will premiere a new ad in the Super Bowl in front of hundreds of millions of people. #StandUpToJewishHate and all hate. #🟦
Day 121. At least 132 hostages still experiencing Hell on earth. In the words of Rachel Goldberg, a mom of a hostage - "Why are you letting them stay in the dark, in their trauma, buried in the earth's crust. Why is it that their live actually don't matter?"
It has never been more important, as a global Jewish community, to mark International Holocaust Remembrance Day. We are grateful to the hundreds of people who joined us at the National Holocaust Monument in #Ottawa for the annual #IHRD commemoration to hear from…

A lot of very excited kids in our synagogue... a chance for high level hockey while still maintaining Shabbat observance!
Yeshiva University’s ice hockey team are playing their inaugural game tonight!! yumacs.com/news/2024/1/18…
Don't worry, fellow Canadians, there is nothing to worry about...
This is no mistake. A group in Montreal is publicizing 'Car Rally 4 Palestine' with an image of a truck full of masked men that obviously resembles the trucks used by terrorists on Oct 7.
