Summary
Toronto police are deploying unprecedented security measures ahead of the Jewish High Holy Days, with visible and undercover officers, tactical task forces, and command posts set up in key areas — all in response to a surge in hate-motivated attacks targeting Jewish communities since October 2023. Chief Myron Demkiw and Mayor Olivia Chow emphasize that Jewish residents shouldn’t live in fear, as authorities ramp up enforcement, boost hate-crime investigations, and extend protections beyond the holidays — including through the anniversary of the October 7th attacks. While Montreal maintains standard precautions, Toronto’s proactive stance signals a firm commitment to safeguarding religious life and daily safety amid rising antisemitism.
