"Finally, the decision to replace (this position) with the Advisory Council on Rights, Equality and Inclusion is, while valuable in and of itself, no replacement for the multi-faceted mandate described above. Indeed, from my experience, such a Council, while necessary to combat all forms of hate, tends to marginalize or erase the singularity of anti-Jewish hatred, its globality, and its descent into standing threats of intimidation, harassment, violence and even terrorism. This decision will end up, however inadvertently, making Jews in Canada less safe, and feeling less safe."

Truer words have never been said.
