Seeking Office Episode July 25, 2019

Defining Antisemitism in Vancouver

5:00pm - 6:00pm

From CiTR's News Collective, this is season two of Seeking Office—At-Large. Bringing you innovative storytelling from Metro Vancouver.

This week, a motion tabled by NPA Councillor Sarah Kirby-Yung requested council adopt the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of Antisemitism. The motion didn't pass and was referred to a committee, but in it, stats on hate crimes directed at the Jewish community left us wondering how hate crimes are defined in Canada and Vancouver and which communities feel safe reporting them.
