uh good morning it's uh Brian Pacifi
0:02
with the Toronto Sun uh I wanted to ask
0:04
about Israel and more specifically the
0:06
hatred the Canadian Jews have faced
0:07
since the October 7th attacks uh last
0:09
week Mr carney's comments in Israel
0:11
sparked an anger response from Israeli
0:13
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and
0:15
the new video posted online this morning
0:16
from Liberal Cabinet Minister invoking
0:18
the Israeli genocide myth while
0:20
campaigning in a mosque uh my question
0:22
is the same one I'm hearing from Jewish
0:23
voters I've spoken to with the NDP and
0:25
the Liberals making their stances known
0:27
how will the Conservative government
0:28
deal with Canada's Israel policy and
0:30
what will you do to stop the near-w
0:31
weekly hate marches in Canadian streets
0:34
thank you this is a very important
0:36
question um the rampaging chaos that we
0:40
see in our streets the targeting of
0:43
synagogues and Jewish schools with hate
0:48
vandalism violence firebombings of
0:52
synagogues these things were unheard of
0:56
ago we've had look we've always had
0:59
debates and disagreements about foreign
1:01
issues in Canada but those disagreements
1:04
did not spill into violence on our
1:07
streets people left the violence abroad
1:11
that's why they come to this country is
1:12
to live in peace and in freedom so that
1:16
disagreements can play themselves out in
1:18
debate not in firebombings and physical
1:22
the Jewish community feels
1:25
understandably under siege um as these
1:31
anti-semitic outbursts have become a
1:34
part unfortunate part of of Canadian
1:37
life and frankly the Liberals have
1:40
encouraged these divisions we see what
1:42
they do they say one thing to one group
1:45
and then exactly the opposite to another
1:47
group they turn Canadians against
1:50
Canadians and they've been doing it for
1:52
10 years and what is the consequence
1:56
251% increase in hate
2:00
crimes 251 now to be clear we can't
2:04
blame all of that on the October 7th
2:06
attacks because there was already more
2:09
than 100% increase in hate crimes before
2:11
those attacks occurred this is the
2:14
direct result of radical liberal
2:16
policies and divisive rhetoric that has
2:18
driven our people apart we will end that
2:21
uh we will bring in tougher laws uh to
2:27
uh hate marches that are uh that break
2:30
laws um violent attacks based on
2:34
ethnicity and religion anyone who's here
2:37
on a visitor visa who carries out
2:42
lawbreaking will be deported from this
2:45
country and we will be there will be
2:49
very serious jail time and on top of
2:51
that fines for anyone who carries
2:56
anti-semitic vandalism or property
2:59
damage uh we need to unite our people we
3:02
need to get back to the country we used
3:04
to have with regards to bringing people
3:06
together um used to be that people would
3:09
come from around the world they live in
3:11
peace they might have different
3:13
political opinions they might even
3:15
squabble about those opinions but they
3:17
didn't throw rocks at each other they
3:19
didn't firebomb each other's businesses
3:21
they didn't break glass that wasn't how
3:24
it was in Canada we need to heal those
3:26
wounds and bring our people together
3:28
again so that everyone from every
3:30
background feels safe my closing message
3:33
on this to the to to Canada's Jewish
3:35

3:37
