## Resource

Harley Finkelstein faced a public confrontation at Montreal’s Startupfest — his third such incident in two years over his support for Israel — sparking a raw reflection on antisemitism in Canada. With his parents watching, he recalled his father’s journey to Canada as a refuge from persecution, now fearing that same safety may be slipping away. Many friends and family are now weighing “Plan B” — leaving Canada — a warning bell for all Canadians. While praising Trudeau for naming the crisis and proposing new protections, Finkelstein insists real change demands enforcement, naming antisemitism explicitly, and ending the excuse that harassment is “advocacy.” Yet he found hope in the hundreds of startup founders who stood with him, rejecting hate — proving, he says, that most Canadians still believe in Canada’s promise of safety.
