On Monday, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau again condemned violence at pro-Palestine and anti-NATO protests in Montreal over the weekend.
Amid heightened tensions between pro-Israel and pro-Palestine supporters in the city, the protests on Friday came following a week that included a number of anti-Israel boycotts and reports of an instance at the University of Concordia in which a masked demonstrator was filmed appearing to direct Nazi terminology at pro-Israel counter-protesters.
It's important to maintain law and order. Protesters cannot be allowed to run amok, setting cars on fire, smashing windows, and throwing rocks at the police. There is no place for antisemitism, intimidation, or violence in Canadian society. Trudeau has rightfully condemned these appalling actions.
While lawless protestors were running roughshod around Montreal, smashing up businesses and burning cars, Trudeau was shaking his tail-feather at a Taylor Swift concert. It tells you everything you need to know about Canada's Liberal government.
