What can Canadians do to express the sentiments of “Let our people go” today?

Denial of Jewish History and Lived Experiences 

בכל דור ודור (Bechol Dor Vador)

In every generation, on Passover, we tell the story of our liberation from slavery, as we fulfil the obligation to see ourselves as if we left Egypt. Today, people continue to deny and distort Jewish history and lived experience, from biblical times to the October 7 massacre.

What can Canadians do to express the sentiments of “Let our people go” today?

We must:

  • Continue to call for the unconditional release of all hostages in Gaza.
  • Speak up and bear witness on behalf of the 1,200 Jews murdered by Hamas terrorists on October 7, to ensure that the truth is known. The denial and distortion of the massacre are alarming manifestations of antisemitism that hurt all Canadians.
  • Advocate for support for the people and the land of Israel. Hate is a seed that grows in ignorance, and education and information are the only antidotes.
