The Jewish community has much too frequently been the victim of terror attacks, in Israel and elsewhere. On Wednesday, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will apologize for the MS St. Louis. The Prime Minister’s apology to the Jewish community should therefore include a clear path forward on what will be done to deter and punish those who embrace or encourage antisemitism. On Wednesday, Canada has a historic opportunity to do more than merely apologize for the MS St. Louis. The Jewish community needs committed and concerted action on the part of government to combat the rising tides of antisemitism so that, hopefully, there will be no need for apologies in the future.
