Hundreds of individuals and organizations have joined a campaign led by Italian Canadian business and community leaders to stand with their Jewish friends and neighbours against antisemitic hate and violence.

Now, it's our turn to thank them.

SEND YOUR THANKS

For generations, Jewish and Italian Canadians have helped build this country together. Across Canada, our communities have shared neighbourhoods, built businesses, created opportunities and contributed to the social, cultural and economic fabric of this country. The shared Canadian story is one of immigration, hard work, opportunity and resilience, but also discrimination.

Through their campaign, Stand with Our Jewish Friends & Neighbours, Italian Canadian leaders are calling for zero tolerance for hate, consistent enforcement of the law, and leadership from every community.

They are also making it clear that no Canadian – Jewish, Italian or from any background – should be targeted because of their connection to their homeland and for celebrating their roots. 

Take two minutes to thank these leaders for standing with our Jewish community. Let them know their solidarity is appreciated and encourage more Canadians to join.
