Canada’s Trudeau condemns violence, antisemitism at anti-NATO in Montreal last night
[IsraelTimes] Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau ...hereditary prime minister of the Great White North...condemned violence and antisemitism at anti-NATO ...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. A collection of multinational and multilingual and multicultural armed forces, all of differing capabilities, working toward a common goal by pulling in different directions... and pro-Paleostinian protests in downtown Montreal last night, where NATO delegates are gathered for the alliance’s annual assembly. Around 300 delegates from NATO members and partner states are meeting in Montreal from Nov. 22-25. Local media reports that protesters burned an effigy of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, lit smoke bombs and set two vehicles on fire. Police used tear gas and batons to disperse the crowd and three people were arrested for assaulting officers and obstructing police work, according to CTV News. Videos and pictures posted to social media show masked rioters burning flares and battering storefront windows. "What we saw on the streets of Montreal last night was appalling. Acts of antisemitism, intimidation, and violence must be condemned wherever we see them," Trudeau says in a post on X. Montreal police says officers carried out a dispersal operation in the downtown area and that the protest was over by 7 p.m. ET.
