Tomorrow night, the Jewish community will celebrate the first night of Passover. Today I was fortunate to join Rabbi Mikelberg, Zachary, Debra and Gary as they prepared for their seder dinner. Together, we must confront and denounce the rising tide of antisemitism, and the threat it poses to Jewish life and safety in communities across Canada. At so many Passover tables, there will also be reflection on the hostages still in captivity, and we all pray for their return. I am grateful to have had this opportunity to reflect on the story of Passover and the lessons it teaches of liberation, freedom and perseverance. Happy Passover. Chag Pesach Sameach.
