An open letter signed by senior Jewish leaders in British Columbia is calling on Premier David to address “anti-Semitism within his caucus, his government and in British Columbia as a whole.”

Ezra Shanken, chief executive officer of the Jewish Federation of Greater Vancouver, Rabbi Jonathan Infeld, Chair of the Rabbinical Association of Vancouver and Nico Slobinsky, Vice President for the Pacific Region Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs, signed the letter dated March 6 after Selina Robinson had left the NDP caucus, citing concerns that the party was not doing enough to combat anti-Semitism.
