As anti-Israel protesters resort to antisemitic taunts and display blatantly antisemitic signs in a predominantly Jewish neighbourhood, police say they will “consult” the attorney general about potential “promotion of hatred” offences.
Following the “Al Quds Day” protests, Toronto Police Service (TPS) estimated that 4,500 anti-Israel protesters marched to Toronto’s streets, many of whom held signs with the faces of Iran’s Islamic regime dictators. A squad of protesters descended on Toronto’s Jewish neighbourhood at Bathurst Street and Sheppard Avenue, carrying signs which depicted Jewish stereotypes and likened Jews to rats.
