We are excited to invite you to a fireside chat with Professor Bryan Schwartz, discussing his new book, Re-Enlightening Canada.

 
Professor Schwartz critically examines the situation at Canadian universities. He shows how institutions for higher education in Canada have transformed into centres for intolerance, while increasingly targeting Jews and the Jewish state. This hostile environment has left Jewish and pro-Israel students and staff feeling threatened, harassed, and silenced. The issue persists and worsens with each conflict escalation in Israel.

Waiting for the problem to resolve itself is not an option. We must act now to ensure that future generations of Jewish children can attend Canadian universities and feel safe, regardless of their faith, identity, or political views.
 
Drawing from his extensive experience, Professor Schwartz in conversation with Dr. Ruth Ashrafi shares insights, proposes reforms, and engages in a meaningful discussion with the challenges we collectively face.
 
We hope that you can join us for this crucial conversation. Your participation is highly valued.
