Summary
Amir Epstein, CEO of Tafsik, discusses how his organization has evolved from combating antisemitism through advocacy, counter-protests, and legal action to launching a "Plan B" initiative helping Jewish Canadians explore relocation. He shares why Panama has emerged as an unexpected top destination alongside Israel, recounting firsthand stories from its Jewish community, and reflects on what the rise of this emigration wave says about the state of Jewish life in Canada today.
