Antisemitism in Canada (David Larmour interview)
From Sidewalk Skyline Podcast · 01:03:49
Show by Kevin Rogers
David Larmour is the lead pastor of King Street Community Church in Oshawa, Ontario. He and his congregation decided to do something related to understanding antisemitism in Canada. Through building a relationship with the local Jewish community through learning and fellowship, they entered into a friendship that bolstered their own faith experience.According to Stats Canada, “Antisemitism targets people who are or are perceived to be Jewish. Antisemitism continues to persist in Canada, manifesting itself in different ways: vandalism and graffiti, circulation of hate propaganda, intolerant and racist statements, bomb threats to Jewish schools, community centres, and other gathering places. Hate crimes against Jewish people increased by 71% between 2022 and 2023 for a total of 900 crimes reported by the police.” (https://www.canada.ca/en/canadian-heritage/services/canada-holocaust/antisemitism.html)This episode will shed light on the reality that many Jews face and the importance of Judaism at the heart of the Christian faith.
