Holocaust remembrance demands action, not slogans

Ezra Shanken, CEO of the Jewish Federation of Greater Vancouver, joins The Hub to mark Holocaust Remembrance Day. He discusses how the Holocaust began with moral compromises, drawing parallels to rising antisemitism occurring today. He further addresses the dangerous trend of excluding Jews, the failure of political leaders to set clear boundaries against hate, and the Jewish community's continued commitment to Canada despite facing unprecedented threats and insecurity. This episode is a part of The Hub's new Fault Lines initiative, which examines the pressures pulling Canadian society apart and the principles that can hold it together.
