Freedom for all.
We celebrate Hanukkah with our Jewish friends and pray that the menorah shine its light through the darkness to bring peace and safety everywhere.

Le consul général Robert P. Sanders s'est joint dimanche au maire @jerlevi, au @SenatorHousakos, au député @AHousefather et à d'autres dignitaires pour l'allumage de la première bougie de Hanoukka à Hampstead. Compte tenu notamment des terribles attentats perpétrés en Australie, le peuple américain est solidaire des communautés juives de Montréal, de Sydney et du monde entier.
In his remarks, Consul General Sanders said “It is an honor and privilege to join you here today in celebration of this joyous holiday symbolizing perseverance and the triumph of light over darkness. Today, I join your community, and millions of Jewish Americans in the United States in celebrating the hope and promise of this season. May the light of this holiday shine brightly in your homes and spirits. Hanukkah Sameach!”

We lit the first #Hanukkah candle in Hampstead today.
Even in the darkness hanging over because of today’s murderous rampage, the Menorah’s light burns bright, and the Jewish people stand proud and unbroken, like the Maccabees before them. Chag Sameach!
Nous avons allumé aujourd’hui à Hampstead la première bougie de #Hanoucca.
Même dans l’obscurité qui pèse à la suite de la tuerie meurtrière d’aujourd’hui, la lumière de la ménorah brille de mille feux, et le peuple juif demeure fier et inébranlable, à l’image des Maccabées avant lui.

En solidarité avec la communauté juive, en compagnie de notre candidate conservatrice dans D’Arcy McGee, Bonnie Feigenbaum, nous assistons à l’allumage de la menorah, à Hampstead.
Merci au maire Jérémy Levi, et au président de l’Institut des affaires publiques, Beryl Wajsman.
Ne nous laissons jamais terroriser par les terroristes.
Condamnons tous les attentats antisémites d’Australie.
Joyeux Hanoucca!
Hanukkah Sameach!

Just last week, I joined 200 mayors from across North America for the Combat Antisemitism Movement to discuss the rising trend in antisemitism across our nation. It was a powerful and eye opening 48-hours as we focused on what our Jewish community is facing in America.
This morning, I am deeply saddened and outraged by the horrific violence reported at a Hanukkah celebration in Sydney. This hateful and antisemitic act stole innocent lives during a moment meant for peace and joy.
There is no place for such violence or hatred in our world. Today, as our community gathers for a menorah lighting here in Sioux Falls, we do so with heavy hearts and firm resolve — standing in solidarity with the victims, their families, and the Jewish community in SD and around the world, and reaffirming our commitment to unity, compassion, and standing against hate in all its forms.
Mayor Jeremy Levi retweeted
Je condamne avec la plus grande fermeté l’attentat antisémite survenu aujourd’hui perpétré lors d’un événement de Hanoucca à Bondi Beach, en Australie, qui a coûté la vie à 11 personnes innocentes.
Mes pensées accompagnent les victimes, leurs proches, la communauté juive et tous ceux touchés par cette violence insensée.

Will Montreal’s Mayor-elect continue to be harassed for her support of the city’s historic but beleaguered Jewish community? Please see below this example of venomous Jew hatred in the pathetic but fashionable guise of anti-Zionism.

Hampstead will not sell a greenspace at Queen Mary and Northcote to any potential developer, and will rezone the land as a park, Mayor @JerLevI announced last week on social media.

Un plaisir d’accueillir @ThomasMulcair au Consulat. Nous le remercions pour son soutien indéfectible à l’Etat d’Israël et pour avoir partagé ses précieuses réflexions avec nous.
A pleasure to host Tom Mulcair at the Consulate. We thank him for his steadfast support of the State of Israel and for sharing his valuable insights with us.

We condemn the vandalization of three synagogues in Halifax last night with antisemitism graffiti. We urge the authorities to respond urgently and swiftly.
Mayor Jeremy Levi retweeted
Je condamne fermement l’incendie des drapeaux de Hampstead et d’Israël. Les résidents de Hampstead et les Juifs partout ont le droit de vivre en paix et en sécurité.
This reprehensible act has no place in our society. Justice will be served.

Hampstead is the third largest Jewish community outside Israel with more than half of its residents being Jewish.
An Israeli flag at town hall is called solidarity and effectively makes the constituents of Hampstead feel seen in a time where the community is under attack. 🇮🇱🇨🇦
Jews are beat on the streets in Montreal and shouted at, it’s extremely out of touch to be talking about where Israeli flags should and shouldn’t be in a time where Jews are not safe.
An Israeli flag makes Jews feel seen and safe because of our connection to Israel. More signs of safety that are related to our identity like an Israeli flag are needed. Not less.
Mayor Jeremy Levi retweeted
Nous sommes heureux de constater qu'une personne a pu être identifiée et arrêtée pour cette attaque sur une propriété municipale et contre la ville d'Hampstead que nous avions pu précédemment dénoncer.
Toute tentative d’intimidation de la part de personnes radicales qui cherchent à propager la haine dans nos rues doit entraîner des sanctions exemplaires. C'est grâce à cela que nos "rues de paix" pourront redevenir réellement nos "rues de paix".

Congratulations to the town of Hampstead and its mayor @jerlevi for standing on the right side of history in condemning Canada's intent to recognize a so-called "State of Palestine". This is a positive step in the fight for freedom and democracy @CdnPressNews
Last night, the Hampstead Town Council, standing shoulder to shoulder with its people, unanimously condemned Prime Minister Mark Carney’s reckless plan to unilaterally recognize a so-called ‘State of Palestine.’ No prime minister has the right to hand legitimacy to terror in our name or to trample on Canada’s historic bond with Israel and the Jewish people. Hampstead will not be silenced, will not bow to Ottawa elites, and will never abandon truth or principle. Our message is clear: if the government will not lead with integrity, then the people will. Hampstead has lit the flame, and now we call on every town and city across this nation — rise with us, stand firm with Israel, and proclaim with one voice: Am Yisrael Chai — the people of Israel live, and Canada stands with them.
Mayor Jeremy Levi retweeted
A heartfelt congratulations/ felicitations to my good friend @jerlevi and his Town of Hampstead Council. Last night, they stood up unanimously to approve a resolution condemning Liberal PM Mark Carney’s plans to reward terrorism and satisfy his Hamas Wing by recognizing an autocratic State of Palestine before a supportive full house of residents at their monthly meeting.
The message supporting their large Jewish population comes in the face of increasing hate and aggression from useful idiots for Iran and other provoking agents who are running full speed to demoralize, intimidate, and isolate. The Resolution is morally clear, principled, and unambiguous. Other municipalities wishing to be on the right side of history should take notes.
Well done!
Mayor Jeremy Levi retweeted
Am Israel hai🇮🇱
Last night, Hampstead roared with history. Our council chamber was filled to overflowing, not with fear, but with fierce resolve. Families, neighbours, friends stood shoulder to shoulder, defiantly proclaiming that the Israeli flag will not be torn down, burned out, or silenced. It flies because our community demands it, because we will never bow to hate or intimidation. Council is but the vessel — the people are the power. And last night, the people spoke with one voice: proud, unbreakable, eternal. The flag of Israel flies in Hampstead, and no act of malice can change that. We stand taller, stronger, prouder than ever. Am Yisrael Chai.

WATCH: Conservative Leader @PierrePoilievre is asked if Canada needs a Castle Law. "The law needs to be clear that if someone comes into your house, uninvited, to steal your property or harm your family, you need to be able to do whatever is necessary to stop them." 🇨🇦
Mayor Jeremy Levi retweeted
This is a burned Israeli flag.
It was raised at Hampstead City Hall — a Montreal suburb.
Whoever did it thought they sent a message. But Hampstead sent a stronger reply.
And tonight a brand new 🇮🇱 flag is waving Shabbat Shalom to the city — and the jerkholes who destroyed it.
