Beautiful Quebec

Anyone following the news here in Quebec, and the "reasonable accommodation" issue, knows that the issue of ani-semitism has once again become socially acceptable.

Recently in a small community just an hour north of Montreal , where many Chassidic Jews have set up their country homes, the "locals" have become quite agressive in their xenophobia. its not tha tI think they were ever not anti semitic, but they are certainly more vocal.. here is an quote from the town hall meeting... published in todays Montreal Gazette....

"Lise Provencher, of St. Jérôme, said immigrants are "buying their way in" to Quebec and that Jews are the worst because they're "the most powerful. ... It's always been said that the Jews are the trampoline of money in the world." After she spoke, the crowd applauded."

She did not say Hassidic Jews or orthodox Jews... just Jews.... and everyone applauds......

my reaction to this.... please see the last 2 posts and pictures below........
Its history... the cycle just repeats itself...... and peopel are still blind.....
