Hello fellow Montrealer. I did not know that vile slogan was chanted here, it is even more stupid in a settler society like Canada. I knew about the shooting of the empty schools, and it's frankly revolting.

Apart from actual antisemite scum, there are reasonable people that just don't understand (yet) the key role of Jewish safety for Palestinian liberation.

I want a vibrant, safe and flourishing Jewish community here in Montreal. I want Jewish people here to weigh doing aliyah vs staying in Montreal and choosing the second as a no-brainer obvious option. Literally the opposite of the kind of antisemitic zionism of the right wingers: I don't want Jews to be carted off away from me, I want them to stay right here, keep being my neighbours, free and safe. And together we can work on decolonizing Turtle Island, but that's a whole other story.
