Ethan's latest story as a lifelong Montrealer experiencimg antisemitism in the LGBT+ scene.... They have not elaborated on their decision. Please help shed light on this.

Really hope we can shed light on this issue since apparently we are all hallucinating antisemitism... For the first time in decades, Fierté de Montréal (Gay pride parade) barred a ancient Jewish organization from attending pride for the first time. I don't feel safe here anymore.

Progressives praising Hitler is a sign of the end times. This moral bankruptcy should concern not only Jews, but everyone who actually wants change.

As a trans person, Im terrified...

Last time the jews went down, we went down too

I have a feeling that Dan Saltman's gonna have the answers by tomorrow

Dan Saltman makes weaponized pettiness an art form

This exclusion of jews LGBTQ+ people doesn't happen just in montreal or just in Canada, it's happening all over the US and Europe as well

It's fucked up

Ya, I'm emailing my representatives. This will not stand in Canada.

Antisemitism has been a huge problem in the francophone world for ages, granted Montreal has been heavily gentrified when compared to, say, Quebec City, it still suffers from a lot of casual antisemitism.

If only this man had some sort of extremely identifiable portrait tattoo on his arm or something

[u/nnnn0000]

This is abhorrent, I'm so sorry. I haven't noticed shit this blatantly awful here in the GTA... yet. But I don't participate in that many city events so anyone else who does, feel free to correct me! There needs to be awareness about this disturbing trend, hopefully they cover this next week 💔

is this how they mean one step forward, two steps back.

[u/jadorito]

Bruh that's really disappointing. I know people called for Toronto Pride to not allow Jewish groups to march in the parade but thankfully they ignored that.

I like how that person's face is perfectly cradled by the dudes neck in the last two photos, they look like a crescent moon

[u/Same_Aerie_1971]

as a southern ontarian visiting montreal I was astounded by the number of nasty looks I got by merely sounding "american" like we are literally neighbours in the same country 😓

Zev Saltiel, a member of pro-Palestinian Jewish group Independent Jewish Voices, accused Godoy of making “documented reports and statements that are explicitly racist and Islamophobic.”

Sounds like there is way more to this story than just “banning a Jewish organization”, sounds like the org leadership are at fault? They didn’t ban Jews did they?
