Dear Letter to the Editor: Judith Thurman myopically writes that Gertrude Stein " never seems to have taken antisemitism too seriously".  ("Say It Again", The New Yorker, October 6, 2025, page 66). Huh? Gertrude Stein translated twelve speeches of the Nazi loving Petain and brought them to America trying to peddle this antisemitic drivel  to American publishers -- who not surprisingly rejected them. "Not take antisemitism  too seriously". Are you kidding, Judith? If Gertrude

Feb. 16, 2026 Wendi S. Williams, PhD, President of the American Psychological Association Dear Dr. Williams, It has come to my attention that the Coalition of National, Racial and Ethnic Psychological Associations have announced their opposition to the establishment of a Jewish branch because Jews have white skin and whites are the colonizers, slaveholders and in the case of Jews, slum landlords. I can assure the American Psychological Association that not a single Jewish psy

A Bad Decision Can Be Corrected Dear David Mastin, President of the Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario: I have become aware that you have made a horrendous decision to be advised about "antisemitism awareness" by Jewish Voices. Jewish Voices is a Zionophobic organization made up of Jews who have internalized Jew hatred *. You may not be aware that Jewish history is unfortunately made up of some Jews who have internalized jew hatred. Two of the most infamous  Jews who i

Dear University of Victoria President (Interim or permanent); Reading in the SSI news bulletin that your university has again voted NOT to register a Jewish student organization is alarming. While it may be the student body that voted, you need take a deep look in the proverbial mirror and ask, What are you doing that engenders Jew hatred? What are your faculty teaching that supports isolating and intimidating, excluding and denigrating Jewish students? You are the Adults, we

The decision by the Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario (“ETFO”) to engage Independent Jewish Voices (“IJV”) to conduct antisemitism training for its executives is, to be blunt, a sick joke.   IJV represents the Canadian Jewish community the way that Jim Jones’ People’s Temple or the Westboro Baptist Church represents Canadian Christians.  They’re “independent” for a reason – no mainstream Jewish group will associate with them, as their values and organizational purpose

Dear Letters to the Editor: Desperate for a few dollars the Sydney Morning Herald  (SMH) is complicit with the Zionophobic* Jewish Council of Australia (JCA) in publishing an "ad" criticizing President Herzog's visit to Australia; an ad filled with fictional names, names of proud Zionists who have publicly said that they never agreed to their names being used as well as the names of three concentration camp kapos.

Feb. 2, 2026 Dear Editor, The Palestinian resistance forces have experienced a calamity in the West Bank where attacks on Israelis have dropped from 847 in 2023, to 504 in 2024, to 57 in 2025. The drop is primarily the result of IDF counter terrorism measures. Naturally, the Palestinians, unable to bear the shame of their failures accuse the IDF units of being "vigilante militias". Palestinians can call Israel anything they want, and do, but they are no match for the IDF that

Dear Prime Minister Carney, Why are we actively inviting Qatar to further infiltrate Canadian values through dubious investment strategies? Qatar,  as a key financial supporter of Hamas, openly funds terrorism and allows Hamas billionaire warlords to live in luxury in Doha. In effect, Qatar, with Iran, has unleashed an unholy war in Gaza. Qatar’s open support of Hamas has already permeated Canadian life to the point that violent Jew-hatred has become normalized, and growing s

Dear Letter to the Editor: The disinvitation of Rabbi Hanan Leberman of Congregation Tifereth Israel Synagogue in San Carlos to the San Diego Alliance's "People's Breakfast" in honor of the Rev.

On CBC  Matt Galloway's The Current(11/18) Avril Benoit, CEO of Doctors Without Borders was permitted without challenge to spew endless antisemitic calumnies about the Jewish people of Israel including the IDF.

Good morning Mr. Sheehan and best wishes to you and yours for a happy and healthy new year. I felt compelled this morning to draw your attention to the New Year’s Eve programming last night on CBC television that was shocking and horrifying. Correction, it wasn’t shocking given the steady diet of heavily biased anti-Israel reporting by the CBC that Canadians have been fed since October 7 2023. I took a screenshot while watching and then saw that Honest Reporting had emailed a

Dear Editor, Carleton University's Issac Jackman's Zionophobic screed demonstrates his denial of the existence of Judaism since Judaism is based SOLELY on the 3500 year old Jewish Bible aka the Old Testimony; that Jewish Bible has only ONE foundational narrative - the Jewish people's Return to Zion - what today is Israel. It is not complicated. For 3500 years Zionism has been the core value of Judaism. That is why Jerusalem is mentioned 659 times in the Jewish Bible. FYI the

Dear Attorney General Downey, When will hate crime laws be simplified and applied so that the police can do their work in protecting communities at risk? You hold specific legal power concerning hate speech charges. At present, would-be criminals, kidnappers and protesters proclaiming “ globalize the Intifada”, “gas the Jews”, etc., are allowed to hide behind masks and take over streets and malls.. This is a scenario redolent of Berlin in the l930’s where Nazi intimidation wa

Dear Mayor Chow, I moved to Toronto  from the USA in 2006. Today, as a Jew, I am afraid to continue living here. Before I elaborate, here is some background: In 2011, I founded  a music festival that has given work to hundreds of Canadian musicians and brought together tens of thousands of music-lovers of all backgrounds. In 2016, I co-founded an exciting new congregation that serves the Toronto Jewish community and has reached hundreds of thousands of Canadians through groun

Dear Letter to the Editor: Globe and Mail reporter/ columnist  Hasan Jabar mendaciously attempts to blame the Jewish people of Israel for the living conditions of the infinitesimally small Christian population of Gaza ( a few hundred people; . 025 percent of Gaza's population). In fact as a result of the savage anti Christian Koranic policies of Hamas the Christian population of Gaza has been reduced 90% over the last twenty years.

Mayor Olivia Chow City of Toronto Mayor_chow@toronto.ca Dear Mayor Chow, Words seem to fail you when it comes to addressing Jew hatred; while your words provoke anti-Jewish sentiments because you unjustly reject the truth.

Dear Prime Minister Carney, WHO IS HIDING BEHIND THE MASK? It is time to ask questions about the phenomenon of fanatical demonstrators marching with impunity, threatening, and actually committing violence, creating a situation requiring a fortune of public and private funds to be spent in security.

Dear Mayor Chow, I am writing to you as a deeply concerned citizen regarding the significant rise in antisemitism that Toronto and the GTA have experienced in recent months. Members of the Jewish community — along with many other Torontonians — are increasingly anxious about their safety, their inclusion, and their place in the civic fabric of our city. Many in the community feel a profound disappointment in the response of Toronto’s leadership. The expectation has always bee

Dear Letter to the Editor: The University of Toronto " Varsity's" Editor in Chief Eleanor Yuneun Park should not be genuflecting to the totally debunked statistics of the" Gaza Health Ministry".

Dear TPL Management, I am writing to bring to your attention a serious concern regarding the children’s book Human Rights  by Yayo Herrero (2025, Square Triangle / Seven Stories Press), which is currently in your collection.

Dear Letter to the Editor: Hannia Arevalo may be a student who majors in Near East Studies , but she in fact does not understand that Zionism is THE fundamental pillar of Jewish identity.

Dear Mayor McAdam and Dublin Councillors; You bring dishonour to your city and increase the surging antisemitism when you contemplate and, I  expect approve, the renaming of Herzog Park, no doubt simply because he was a Jew.

Dear Editor, I would like to ask the media the following question: Why do Nigerian Christian girls not matter and why do some British and European girls not matter? The answer, in my opinion, is that the media in 2025 are protecting the villains and ignoring the victims for political reasons. It seems that everyone in MSM is afraid to speak out against rape gangs in Europe and murderous terrorists who abduct and brutalize young girls in Nigeria by the hundreds. The fear to pu

Dear Editor; Texas Governor Greg Abbott by declaring CAIR a terrorist organization has simply stated what the Justice Department, federal courts, scholars and investigative reporters have repeatedly concluded over the past 20 years.

Mayor Farkas and City Council, I cannot express to you my disappointment in the decision to raise the Palestinian flag at City Hall later this month. I am equally flabbergasted by the manoeuvring that seemingly took place, to facilitate this by changing the date to coincide with an actual meaningful date for Palestinians. Perhaps it's worth noting that the originally scheduled date of Nov 30, is the annual commemoration of the 850,000 Jews who became refugees when they were f

His Excellency Emmanuel Macron President of France Dear President Macron, Your description of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas as a "prince of peace" is the most cynical utterance from France since one of your predecessors said the Maginot Line would repel a German invasion.

Dear Editor, Please tell me it's not a coincidence that on the week that New York elected a mayor who is unwilling to accept the reality of a Jewish state, or condemn the call for the worldwide murder of Jews, New York Magazine  publishes a lie about Israel committing a genocide.
