Usually around this time, we are all gathered around the Chanukiah lighting the candles and eating latkes at CIJA’s annual ‘Dreidels & Drinks’ reception. Unfortunately, we can’t be together this year in person to bring in the Jewish Festival of Lights Chanukah with our community partners, friends and colleagues. But that doesn’t mean we can’t celebrate Chanukah virtually.

We want to thank our partners and the elected officials and community leaders across British Columbia for their friendship and continued support of the Jewish community. We look forward to working together on issues of importance to our community. Together, we strengthen the fabric of Canada.
