Professor Hill states that no babies or children were killed in the massacre & that there were no credible reports of rape. He refers to Zionism as Nazism. We invite @ualberta administration to scour the immense antisemitic content on his Twitter page.

We accept @gilmcgowan 's apology regarding his recent comments around the Nazis & the Holocaust. Through our direct engagement with Mr. McGowan, we feel he understands his error in comparing current day politics to one of the world’s most horrific historical events. (1/2)

Today, I apologized to the Jewish community for using the Nazis as a point of reference in my criticism of the UCP. But I will NOT apologize to the UCP for calling out their authoritarian-inspired tactics and policies. #AbLeg #abpoli #cdnpoli #canlab

We are breaking with our policy not to post on Shabbat or a holiday, to provide an important community update on Israel, and the ensuing terror taking place. On the holiday of Simchat Torah, Hamas launched an unprecedented attack on the people of Israel.

Learning the accused listed "the genocide in Gaza" as part of his motivations has us incredibly concerned about the growing incidents of hate towards the Jewish community in Canada and the importation of violence and extremism due to a conflict outside our borders.
