Rise in hate crimes continues in Montreal


Recommended Posts

Posted

My grand-parents neighbourhood (Cote des Neiges) just can't catch a break lately. :rip:

 

Mon Nov 27: the Jewish Community Council of Montreal on Decarie Boulevard was firebombed by a molotov cocktail, mere hours after a meeting with local leaders about how to improve security against firebombings and other hate crimes.

So awful. But the bulk of the post is about hate crimes toward Jews. So the large swath of atrl won’t care as it doesn’t fit its narrative. :/
