Canadian Jewish groups divided over new antisemitism plan

jpost.com

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's new plan to combat antisemitism has divided Jewish groups, with some criticizing its broad scope and lack of enforcement. The plan establishes a Ministerial Advisory Council on Rights, Equality, and Inclusion, tasked with addressing all forms of hate, with a primary focus on antisemitism, which has seen a significant rise. Critics argue the council's mandate is too vague and that the government should specifically condemn anti-Zionism as a form of antisemitism, while supporters welcome a unified approach to combating various forms of hate.
