And because of the immigration policies in Canada and the US, this will only get worse. And we can expect other hatreds from around the globe to also be played out in Canada and the US as each nation “enriches” themselves with more and more diversity from any and everywhere.

"...the fabric of civil discourse that Canadians proudly cherish,”

Tensions between Jewish and Palestinian groups

This phrse is a known anti-israel bigorted line, as if it's not (all) ARAB MUSLIM students vs Israel/Jews, it's an attept to "politicize" the wider Islamo Arab hatred for ALL Jews.

I'm sure that the Canadian Human Rights Commission would never allow something mean to be said about Jews, let alone something violent to happen to them!
