Today's podcast:

We speak with two mothers of Jewish children in Ottawa.

One mother's 5 year-old child on his school bus heard the words "all Jews raise your hands." Shades of 1933?

Another Jewish child in Ottawa was told to go and kill herself and her mother is terrified when her daughter wears the Star of David in public.

Guests: Anna. Grew up in the Soviet Union and came to Canada because this is a "beautiful and peaceful country." Now her daughter has been told to go and kill herself.

And: Dr. Tejaswinhi Srinivas. Psychologist who wrote op ed in the Ottawa Citizen. Dr. Srinivas is Indo-American and not usually thought of as Jewish. What she hears in conversation is chilling. Citizen.https://ottawacitizen.com/opinion/srinivas-antisemitism-is-becoming-normalized-in-canada-we-must-not-allow-this

Ontario premier Doug Ford has been attacked for his remarks on Thursday in the presence of Justin Trudeau and Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow when the premier said he's "had it up to here" with attacks on Ontario's Jewish community and urged anyone coming to Ontario to live not do so if they are bringing hatred and vitriol with them.

A gratuitous attack on immigrants by Ford, or an elected politician speaking his mind and perhaps echoing what many have been thinking? What do Canadians want from their elected officials? Doug Ford bluntness or statements such as the one made by prime minister Justin Trudeau who following the arson attack on the Shara Tzedeck synagogue in Vancouver offered only "a synagogue was attacked last night in Vancouver in another disgusting act of antisemitism. We cannot let this hate or these acts of violence stand. This is not the Canada we want to be."

What do Canadians want from their politicians as response to Jew-hatred and acts of terrorism such as shooting at Jewish schools and arson at synagogues?

Guest: Darrell Bricker. CEO. IPSOS Public Affairs.

Following up on the statement by premier Ford. The premier doubled down yesterday on his Thursday statement and we speak with Toronto Sun featured columnist Joe Warmington who has reported extensively on Ford and his Thursday statement.

Guest: Joe Warmington.

Public inquiry into foreign election interference. PM Trudeau responds to Commissioner Justice Marie-Josee Hogue's complaint the Liberal government guilty of redacting, as well as refusing to turn over significant numbers of documents to the Inquiry.

Guest: Duff Conacher. Co-founder Democracy Watch.
