Antisemitism in Canada has exploded in the aftermath of Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023, massacre, reaching record numbers last year and becoming a central issue for the country’s Jewish community ahead of an April 28 federal election.
Last week, Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre, the main challenger to Prime Minister Mark Carney accused pro-Hamas protesters of staging «hate marches» and vowing to deport antisemitic foreigners from Canada.
«The rampaging chaos that we see in our streets, the targeting of synagogues and Jewish schools with hate, vandalism, violence, fire bombings … these things were unheard of 10 years ago,» Poilievre said.
He also had a warning for foreign agitators. «Anyone who is here on a visitor visa who carries out lawbreaking will be deported from this country,» Poilievre said.

«To Canada’s Jewish community,» Poilievre added, «you are not alone, you have friends. Canadians stand with you. You have the right to wear your Star of David, your kippah, and have your mezuzah on your door. You should feel proud to be Jewish and should never have to hide your Jewishness in order to stay safe.»
On Friday, Poilievre shared on X the Montreal Jewish Community Council’s call for Jewish voters to endorse him. In the video, the group’s executive director, Rabbi Saul Emanuel, referencing Poilievre’s support for the community, stated, «We remember who stood with us when it mattered most, and now we can all make a difference.»
Emanuel noted that Jewish voters could play a decisive role in as many as 14 districts in Canada. «Our vote matters, our voice matters. That’s why I am proud to support Pierre Poilievre and I urge you to do the same,» he said.
Carney has also used social media to condemn antisemitism. In a tweet wishing Jewish Canadians a happy Passover, he condemned the growing incidents, stating in part, «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.»

Yet despite his strong words against antisemitism, Carney recently faced criticism following a campaign rally in Calgary, where someone yelled at the Liberal Party leader, «There’s a genocide happening in Palestine.»
«I’m aware,» Carney replied. «That’s why we have an arms embargo [on Israel].»
The next day, Carney, who in March replaced longtime Premier Justin Trudeau, claimed he had not heard the anti-Israel demonstrator correctly.
His backtracking did not stop Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu from entering the fray. He posted on X that «Canada has always sided with civilization. So should Mr. Carney.
«But instead of supporting Israel, a democracy that is fighting a just war with just means against the barbarians of Hamas, he attacks the one and only Jewish state,» Netanyahu posted.
According to an annual audit released this month by B’nai Brith Canada, the total number of reported cases of Jew hatred in the country hit 6,219 in 2024, a 7.4% increase over 2023 and the highest number since the survey’s inception in 1982.
Antisemitic incidents in Canada have skyrocketed by 124.6% since 2022.

«Over the last 18 months, a new baseline has been established for antisemitism in Canada, and it’s having a detrimental effect on the lives of Jewish people,» Richard Robertson, director of research and advocacy at B’nai Brith Canada, told Fox News Digital. «We are seeing an increase in certain forms of antisemitism, specifically anti-Zionism.»
Irwin Cotler, a former justice minister and attorney general of Canada for the Liberal Party, told Fox News Digital «antisemitism has become mainstream, normalized and legitimized in the political, popular, academic, media, entertainment and sport cultures. All this happened in the absence of outrage,» he said.
«I hope that whichever party gets elected, we will see deliverables in combating specific hate crime, hate speech, harassment, assault, vandalism and all the things you find reported in the [B’nai Brith] annual report. From my experience, even those statistics are not telling the true story. They are underreported.»

«The community of democracies must act because the security of our collective freedom is at stake,» Cotler warned.
Israeli Ambassador to Canada Iddo Moed told Fox News Digital many local Jews «feel vulnerable, unsafe and unprotected by law enforcement bodies, governments and education systems that have stood by as antisemitism reached crisis levels.»
He noted that Israel, the homeland of the Jewish people, is obligated to act when Jews in the Diaspora are in distress.
«Equipping teachers with the resources to teach about antisemitism and the Holocaust is essential to ensure future generations understand the dangers of hatred and continue to embrace peace, tolerance and equality,» he added.
TRUMP TAKES CENTER STAGE IN CANADA’S PRIME MINISTER ELECTION DEBATE

The antisemitism survey highlighted numerous incidents, ranging from Quebec daily La Presse publishing a cartoon depicting Netanyahu as Nosferatu, a vampire associated with Jews in Nazi-era propaganda and a pro-Hamas protester at the University of Toronto shouting at a Jewish student that Hitler should have «murdered all of you.»
In May, an arsonist ignited a fire at the entrance to the Schara Tzedeck Synagogue in Vancouver as prayers concluded. The same month, shots were fired at the Bais Chaya Mushka girls’ school in Toronto, and the school has since been targeted twice more by gunfire. In August, a bomb threat affected Jewish institutions across the country. In December, a firebomb struck Congregation Beth Tikvah in Montreal, the second such attack since Oct. 7, 2023.
Thereafter, Israeli President Isaac Herzog called on the Canadian government to take action to «stamp out» antisemitism.
«The world must wake up. Words are not enough. Synagogues burned. Jews attacked. Never again is now,» he said, employing the adage stressing a commitment to preventing another Holocaust.
Anthony Housefather is the MP in the House of Commons for Mount Royal, an area with a large Jewish population held by the Liberals since 1940 being viewed as a bellwether for where the community stands.

«The alarming numbers [of antisemitic incidents] make it clear as to why every level of government in the country needs to work together to implement all the recommendations set out in the justice committee report of last December and the commitments made at the national summit on antisemitism in March,» Housefather told Fox News Digital.
Trudeau, who was widely panned for failing to adequately address the groundswell of antisemitism, had announced the summit within hours of Herzog’s condemnation.

Neil Oberman, the Conservative Party candidate running against Housefather, told Fox News Digital that in Mount Royal «personal safety and security have become serious issues.
«It’s a stark reminder of the urgent need for a federal government consisting of adults implementing actions instead of putting together summits and position papers and blaming everybody else to combat hate and protect vulnerable communities,» Oberman said.

Texas man sues California doctor in unprecedented abortion pill case over unborn child’s alleged ‘murder’

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A Texas man has filed a landmark federal wrongful death lawsuit against a California abortion provider, alleging the physician «murdered» his unborn children by mailing abortion pills across state lines.
The case, Rodriguez v. Coeytaux, marks the first of its kind to test how far pro-life litigants can go to sidestep blue state abortion shield laws using century-old federal statutes and Texas civil code.
Filed July 20 in the Southern District of Texas, the lawsuit accuses Dr. Remy Coeytaux of aiding illegal self-managed abortions in 2024, by mailing abortion-inducing drugs to Galveston County, Texas, where they were allegedly used to end two pregnancies.
Plaintiff Jerry Rodriguez claims his girlfriend’s estranged husband purchased the pills from Coeytaux through a Venmo transaction and pressured her to take them, ending two pregnancies Rodriguez says were his.
FEDERAL JUDGE PARTIALLY BLOCKS LAW BANNING ADULTS FROM HELPING MINORS GET OUT-OF-STATE ABORTIONS
An ultrasound image from Jan. 18, 2025, allegedly shows Jerry Rodriguez’s unborn son. Filed as Exhibit 2 in Rodriguez v. Coeytaux in the Southern District of Texas. (Image filed in U.S. District Court, Southern District of Texas)
At the heart of the suit is an alleged $150 Venmo payment to «Remy Coeytaux MD PC» labeled «Aed axes,» followed by his girlfriend’s name. The lawsuit states Rodriguez interprets «Aed axes» to be a phonetic spelling of «Aid Access,» a network that helps women obtain abortion pills.
Rodriguez alleges the first abortion occurred in September 2024, at the home of his girlfriend’s mother, and the second in January 2025, at the home of her estranged husband. Ultrasound images from January, attached as Exhibit 2, are offered as proof of a second pregnancy. According to the complaint, the baby was a boy.
Rodriguez is seeking over $75,000 in damages, certification of a national class of «fathers of unborn children,» and a permanent injunction barring Coeytaux from mailing abortion drugs in violation of state or federal law.
MEDICAL GROUPS URGE KENNEDY, FDA TO REEXAMINE BROAD APPROVAL OF ABORTION DRUGS

The complaint’s legal foundation has drawn attention. The lawsuit revives the long-dormant Comstock Act, an 1873 federal anti-obscenity law banning the mailing of abortion-related materials. Though unenforced for over a century, the Comstock Act remains on the books.
Jonathan Mitchell, the attorney behind Texas’s heartbeat law (SB8), represents Rodriguez in the case. He argues that Dr. Remy Coeytaux violated 18 U.S.C. §§ 1461 and 1462, the federal Comstock Act, by knowingly using the mail to send abortion-inducing drugs from California to Texas.
The suit also alleges Coeytaux committed felony murder under Texas Penal Code § 19.02 by knowingly aiding an illegal abortion. It cites multiple violations of Texas law, including statutes that require abortion drugs to be administered only by in-state physicians, after informed consent and a mandatory ultrasound, and only at licensed abortion facilities. Coeytaux, who is not licensed in Texas, allegedly met none of those requirements.
PRO-LIFE MOVEMENT CONFRONTS HIGH ABORTION RATES THREE YEARS LATER AFTER DOBBS

The case is already being seen as a strategic test of blue state abortion shield laws. States like California, New York, and Washington have passed measures to protect their abortion providers from legal risks when treating out-of-state patients.
But Rodriguez’s legal team avoided those roadblocks by filing a civil wrongful death suit directly in federal court, a move some legal scholars say could offer a new route for anti-abortion plaintiffs to reach providers beyond their own state’s borders.
As of Friday, court records show Coeytaux had not filed a response to the complaint, and he has not made any public statements about the case.

Pro-abortion groups are expected to contest both the interpretation of the Comstock Act and the standing of private citizens to bring wrongful death claims tied to out-of-state telehealth prescriptions.
If the case survives early procedural hurdles, it may offer a new template for pro-life litigants to target the supply chain of abortion pills three years after Dobbs was decided at the Supreme Court.
Coeytaux did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.

Hamas pushes back on Trump and Witkoff’s criticisms, demands US pressure Israel

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Hamas rejected criticism from top U.S. officials after ceasefire talks with Israel broke down earlier in the week.
«We are appalled by the statements of U.S. President Trump and earlier by U.S. special envoy Witkoff, which contradict the mediators’ assessment of Hamas’ position and are inconsistent with the actual progress of negotiations that had been acknowledged by mediators, particularly Qatar and Egypt, as they expressed satisfaction and appreciation for our serious and constructive stance,» Izzat Al-Rishq, member of Hamas Movement’s Political Bureau, said in a statement.
Al-Rishq went on to claim that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government was «the real obstructionist to all agreements,» accusing Israeli officials of continuing to «put up obstacles, deceive, and evade commitments.» He then demanded that the U.S. put more pressure on Israel «to seriously engage in ending the aggression and achieving a prisoner exchange deal,» presumably referring to the remaining hostages in Gaza and Palestinians in Israeli prisons.

US PULLS TEAM FROM CEASEFIRE TALKS IN QATAR AFTER ISRAEL DOES THE SAME, CLAIMING HAMAS IS ACTING IN BAD FAITH
The Trump administration has spent months trying to end the war between Israel and Hamas, with no resolution in sight.
Hopes for a ceasefire in Gaza dimmed further after the U.S. pulled its delegation out of Qatar. U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff said in a statement that this was because Hamas’ response to negotiations showed «a lack of desire to reach a ceasefire in Gaza.»
«While the mediators have made a great effort, Hamas does not appear to be coordinated or acting in good faith. We will now consider alternative options to bring the hostages home and try to create a more stable environment for the people of Gaza,» Witkoff said in a statement Thursday.
Witkoff added that it was a «shame» Hamas has acted in such a «selfish way» and that the U.S. stands resolute in its efforts to bring permanent peace to the region.

HAMAS ‘HARDENS’ STANCE IN CEASEFIRE TALKS AS NETANYAHU RECALLS NEGOTIATION TEAM
On the same day the U.S. announced its negotiators would leave Qatar, Netanyahu’s office said the Israeli team would also withdraw, citing Hamas’ response.
President Donald Trump expressed his disappointment in Hamas’ handling of the negotiations while speaking with press outside the White House on Friday. He speculated that Hamas did not want to make a deal because «they know what happens after you get the final hostages» out of Gaza.
«Hamas didn’t really want to make a deal. I think they want to die, and it’s very, very bad,» Trump said. «It got to be to a point where you’re going to have to finish the job.»

Qatar and Egypt, which have acted as mediators in the talks, issued a joint statement on Friday in which the countries confirmed they would continue to work on securing a ceasefire.
«The two countries, in partnership with the United States of America, reaffirm their commitment to continuing efforts toward reaching a comprehensive agreement for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip,» Qatar and Egypt’s joint statement read.
While the breakdown of negotiations is a clear setback, talks are expected to resume next week, according to Reuters, which cited Egyptian state-affiliated Al Qahera News TV.

En Brasil disminuyen los homicidios, pero aumentan las violaciones y los delitos cibernéticos

En Brasil, los 44.127 homicidios registrados en 2024 supusieron una reducción del 5,4% con respecto al año anterior. Con una media de 22,8 homicidios por cada 100.000 habitantes, se trata de la tasa más baja de los últimos 11 años. En comparación con 2017, la disminución fue del 27,7%. Este cambio ha sido revelado por el Anuario Brasileño de Seguridad Pública 2025, publicado esta semana, que también ha destacado el aumento de los fraudes y los delitos cibernéticos. Sin embargo, hay que recordar que el índice de homicidios no incluye los robos con resultado de muerte, un fenómeno cada vez más frecuente, lamentablemente, sobre todo en las grandes ciudades brasileñas. Tampoco incluye las lesiones corporales seguidas de muerte, las muertes por causas indeterminadas o los asesinatos a manos de la policía, datos que revelarían una realidad mucho más compleja, como demuestra el caso de la capital financiera del país, San Pablo. De hecho, en esta ciudad, mientras que la tasa de homicidios en 2023 era de 6,4 por cada 100.000 habitantes, si se hubieran incluido todas las muertes violentas intencionadas, la tasa habría ascendido a 11,2, casi el doble. Además, desde una perspectiva global, la situación de Brasil sigue siendo crítica. Según la Oficina de las Naciones Unidas contra la Droga y el Delito (UNODC), el gigante latinoamericano presenta una tasa de muertes violentas intencionadas significativamente superior a la media de América Latina y el Caribe (19,2 en 2022) y casi cuatro veces superior a la media mundial de 5,8. Con aproximadamente el 3% de la población mundial, Brasil es responsable de alrededor del 10% de todos los homicidios cometidos en el mundo.
Las ciudades más violentas del país se concentran principalmente en el noreste. Entre los 20 municipios de la lista, los 12 primeros se encuentran precisamente en esta amplia región. La ciudad símbolo de esta emergencia de seguridad es Maranguape, en el estado de Ceará. Según el Anuario Brasileño de Seguridad Pública, es la ciudad más violenta del país, con una tasa de 79,9 muertes por cada 100.000 habitantes. El principal factor que explica esta escalada en una ciudad de poco más de 100.000 habitantes es el conflicto en curso entre dos facciones criminales, el conocido Comando Vermelho (CV), originario de Río de Janeiro, y los Guardianes del Estado (Guardiões do Estado, GDE en portugués). Nacido en 2015 como una disidencia del Primer Comando de la Capital (PCC), el principal grupo criminal de Brasil, el GDE es una facción local de Ceará con vínculos internacionales, en particular con el Cartel de Cali en Colombia, del que recibe drogas a través de rutas en Bolivia y Perú. Entre 2016 y 2019, el GDE colaboró temporalmente con el PCC, pero hoy en día considera tanto al PCC como al CV como sus principales rivales.
La violencia relacionada con las facciones en Ceará no es un fenómeno nuevo. En 2019, las tensiones se intensificaron como consecuencia de las políticas más estrictas en las cárceles introducidas por el secretario de la administración penitenciaria, Mauro Albuquerque, que prohibió la separación de los reclusos por facciones y la entrada de teléfonos móviles. Esto desencadenó una ola de ataques en la capital, Fortaleza, y en la región metropolitana, con incendios de vehículos, interrupciones del transporte público y suspensión de servicios esenciales, lo que requirió incluso la intervención de la Fuerza Nacional.

La lucha por el control del narcotráfico ha convertido a Maranguape en una zona de alto riesgo, con episodios de violencia que han incluido masacres, como la del distrito de Anamari en 2023, donde cuatro personas, entre ellas una mujer embarazada, fueron asesinadas. Las facciones imponen su dominio también a través del control de actividades económicas, como los proveedores de Internet, y obligan a los residentes a obedecer sus reglas, bajo pena incluso de expulsión del territorio. La situación se ve agravada por la proximidad geográfica con la ciudad de Maracanaú, también afectada por conflictos similares, y por la posición estratégica de Maranguape para el tráfico de drogas hacia el puerto de Pecém, un punto clave para la exportación a África y Europa. Además de Maranguape y Maracanaú, otras tres ciudades de Ceará figuran entre las 20 más violentas de Brasil en 2024. Se trata de Caucaia, Itapipoca y Sobral. En los demás estados del noreste, entre las ciudades más violentas se encuentran Camaçari, en el estado de Bahía, donde la empresa china BYD ha construido su fábrica para producir coches eléctricos, y la ciudad turística de Cabo de Santo Agostinho, en el estado de Pernambuco.
A pesar de la reducción general de los índices de violencia en Brasil, la sensación de inseguridad entre la población sigue siendo elevada. Según una encuesta de Quaest, la violencia es la principal preocupación para el 30% de los brasileños. “Hay delitos más visibles que influyen más en nuestra sensación de seguridad en la vida cotidiana. Los robos, las violaciones, los hurtos, los robos de vehículos, las invasiones de propiedades: son estos los que permanecen en el inconsciente colectivo. Muchos de estos delitos han registrado una reducción mínima, mientras que las violaciones, incluso, han aumentado”, declaró Celeste Leite dos Santos, del Ministerio Público de San Pablo y presidenta del Instituto Pro Víctima, al sitio web de noticias Gazeta do Povo.
Según los datos del Anuario Brasileño de Seguridad Pública, Brasil registró un récord histórico de casos de violación en 2024, con un total de 87.545 víctimas, lo que equivale a una víctima cada seis minutos. Esta cifra representa un aumento del 0,9% con respecto a 2023, lo que supone el valor más alto desde el inicio de la serie histórica en 2011. El 76,8% de los casos registrados se refiere a violaciones de menores de 14 años. De ellas, el 61,3% tenían hasta 13 años, y el grupo de edad entre 10 y 13 años es el que concentra el mayor número de casos.
Las mujeres negras representan el 55,6% del total de víctimas, lo que pone de manifiesto una desproporción significativa en términos de vulnerabilidad racial. La violencia sexual se produce principalmente en el ámbito familiar, ya que el 65,7% de las violaciones se cometen en el domicilio de la víctima.
A pesar de que una resolución de la ONU de hace 40 años obliga a los países a adoptar políticas de acogida de las víctimas de delitos violentos, en Brasil aún no existe un sistema estructurado de asistencia médica, psicológica o material para estas personas. La aprobación del Estatuto de la Víctima en la Cámara de Diputados a finales de 2024 supone un paso adelante, pero la medida aún está pendiente de aprobación en el Senado.

Los delitos digitales también aumentaron un 17% con respecto a 2023. En 2024 se produjeron al menos 281.200 delitos de estafa por medios electrónicos en Brasil, lo que supone un aumento del 17% con respecto al año anterior, cuando se registraron 222.700 casos. Según otro informe, “Panorama de amenazas para América Latina 2024”, Brasil es el segundo país del mundo en número de ciberataques, con más de 700 millones de ataques registrados en 12 meses, lo que equivale a 1.379 por minuto. Entre las técnicas más comunes se encuentra el vishing, un tipo de phishing que utiliza recursos vocales para engañar a las víctimas y que representa el 90% de los ataques. Gracias a la inteligencia artificial, los delincuentes pueden imitar las voces de famosos, autoridades o incluso familiares, lo que aumenta la eficacia de los fraudes. Ni siquiera las grandes instituciones están a salvo de la amenaza de los ciberataques.
El miércoles, el Banco Central de Brasil (BC) y el Consejo Nacional de Justicia (CNJ) revelaron un incidente de seguridad informática ocurrido entre el domingo y el lunes pasado, que supuso accesos no autorizados al Sistema de Búsqueda de Bienes del Poder Judicial (Sisbajud), gestionado por el CNJ. El incidente afectó a los datos personales de más de 11 millones de personas, lo que equivale a aproximadamente el 7% de las personas físicas registradas con una clave Pix, el sistema de pago instantáneo brasileño. Los datos a los que tuvieron acceso los criminales eran de carácter personal, incluyendo el nombre del banco, la agencia y el número de cuenta. Sin embargo, el Banco Central ha precisado que no se han expuesto datos sensibles, como contraseñas, información sobre movimientos o saldos financieros, ni otra información cubierta por el secreto bancario.
Este es el segundo ataque cibernético en pocas semanas después del ocurrido a principios de julio, considerado el mayor de la historia de Brasil, en el que se robaron al menos 800 millones de reales (143,7 millones de dólares) a través del acceso a C&M Software, que conecta a los bancos con el sistema de pago Pix. Con la ayuda del Banco Central, la policía logró rastrear parte de las transacciones. Una parte del dinero se transfirió a una institución de criptomonedas en Contagem, en el estado de Minas Gerais, y otra a una empresa de importación y exportación de cosméticos con sede en Brasilia. Posteriormente, se transfirió una suma a dos empresas fintech en los estados de Rio Grande do Sul y Paraná. Estas, finalmente, según informó el diario brasileño O Globo, transfirieron los fondos a Jackson Aquino de Souza, que es corredor de bienes raíces y hasta ayer asistente parlamentario de un diputado del estado de Roraima, en la frontera con Venezuela. Es aquí donde el misterio se intensifica. Durante el interrogatorio con la Policía Federal, el hombre declaró que no tenía conocimiento del origen ilícito del dinero y que había sido contactado por un “garimpeiro” venezolano, es decir, una persona que se dedica a la extracción minera ilegal en el país vecino, identificado como “Dionny”, para comprar una granja por 3 millones de reales (539.006 dólares). La intención era “figurar como comprador formal de la finca y, una vez completado el pago, transferir la propiedad a Dionny”. Quién es esta persona y, sobre todo, a qué grupos criminales de Venezuela está vinculada es el misterio que ahora deberán descubrir los investigadores brasileños.
