Canadian Minister called all Canadians to combat racism and discrimination

On November 3, 2023, Social Development Minister of New Brunswick Jill Green voiced concern over rising hate in Canada at a meeting on anti-racism, representing Immigration Minister Arlene Dunn. The panel emphasized that racism, discrimination, and hate speech have no place in Canada. The Canadian Government’s responsibility is to foster inclusion, respect diversity, and protect everyone’s rights, particularly in challenging times. The Government pledged to ensure safety for all in Canada, affirming that diversity, inclusion, and human rights are core Canadian values. The minister stated that all forms of racism, discrimination, and hate, including antisemitism, Islamophobia, and any rhetoric against Jewish, Arab, Israeli, and Palestinian communities, were entirely unacceptable.
