🚨 Additional Hate Charge Laid Following Anti-Israel Protest in North York Toronto Police say a 33-year-old man, Muhammad Anas Sial, has now been charged with Wilful Promotion of Hatred in connection with a March 2026 anti-Israel demonstration near Bathurst & Sheppard. The new charge comes on top of the previously laid charge of Public Incitement of Hatred. According to TPS, the accused allegedly carried hate propaganda signs, approached pro-Israel demonstrators while shouting inappropriate comments, and continued marching while displaying the signs. Police say the additional charge required approval from the Attorney General’s office. 📰 https://www.tps.ca/media-centre/news-releases/66003/

PM Netanyahu: I spoke last night with President @realDonaldTrump about the memorandum of understanding to reopen the Straits of Hormuz and the upcoming negotiations toward a final agreement on Iran’s nuclear program. I expressed my deep appreciation to President Trump for his unwavering commitment to Israel’s security, including during Operation Roaring Lion and Epic Fury, when American and Israeli forces fought shoulder to shoulder against the Iranian threat. President Trump and I agreed that any final agreement with Iran must eliminate the nuclear danger. That means dismantling Iran’s nuclear enrichment sites and removing its enriched nuclear material from its territory. President Trump also reaffirmed Israel’s right to defend itself against threats on every front, including Lebanon. The partnership between us and our two countries has been proven on the battlefield and has never been stronger.  My policy, like President Trump’s, remains unchanged: Iran will not have nuclear weapons.

In a beautiful display of achdus and emunah, members of many different communities gathered last week at Kollel Ohr Yosef of Thornhill for a heartfelt amiras Tehillim on behalf of a dear member of the community, Eliezer ben Elisheva. The gathering filled the beis medrash and even the ezras nashim to capacity, as attendees joined together in prayer for his refuah sheleimah.

This past Wednesday, the Grade 7 boys from Netivot HaTorah Day School, accompanied by their rebbeim, went out into the community for a special day of learning about kashrus and ahavas Yisrael. The boys first visited The Olive Branch, where they received an inside look at what makes a kosher grocery store unique. They learned about topics including shemittah, terumah and maaser, kosher meat and fish, and the many behind-the-scenes details involved in maintaining high standards of kashrus. The group then continued to Aish Toronto, where they heard from Rabbi Rothman and Rabbi Diamond about the incredible work Aish does in bringing Jews closer to the beauty of Yiddishkeit and inspiring greater connection to Torah and mitzvos. -- 🗞️ JOIN THE TORONTO SCOOP, TORONTO'S FASTEST GROWING WHATSAPP GROUP & STATUS: https://chat.whatsapp.com/IZ1SDTXA9aY5z0w4lT0vyY

Wow. Fascinating: Israeli engineer Yisrael Meir Goodovitch, a great-grandson of the Chofetz Chaim who was born four months after his ancestor’s petirah, passed away on Shavuos. He was 92. • Goodovich, a grandson of Rav Aryeh Leib, who assisted his father in writing the Mishna Berurah, was one of Israel’s most recognizable experts in municipal planning and architecture, serving for several years as Tel Aviv’s city engineer and as chief architect for the Housing Ministry. • His mother, Frida Goodovitch, was a daughter of Reb Chaim and Sarah Bloch, the latter of whom was the daughter of the Chofetz Chaim’s eldest son and rav of Radin, Rav Aryeh Leib. Frida immigrated to Eretz Yisroel in 1932 and a year later married Yaakov Goodovitch. The Chofetz Chaim was niftar several months later, on 24 Elul, and their oldest child was born four months later and named Yisroel Meir. • Although not part of the Torah world, Yisroel Meir revered the legacy of his great-grandfather and was known to never speak bad about others. When footage of the Chofetz Chaim from the 1927 Knessiah Gedolah was uncovered 10 years ago, he became emotional, saying, “There must be a message from Heaven in this for all of us.” Scoop Musings: I wonder if his mother was the granddaughter from the famous story about "sitting in darkness" and sending men to the moon...

National Post: “The Double Standard of Outrage” Beryl Wajsman argues that while Israel faced global condemnation for detaining and deporting Gaza flotilla activists attempting to breach a wartime naval blockade, there has been near-total silence after footage emerged of Spanish police allegedly beating and dragging some of the same activists at Bilbao airport. He points to the contrast in reactions from world leaders — including our Prime Minister — arguing that Israel is routinely judged by a different standard than other countries, and claims this reflects a broader pattern of hostility uniquely directed at the Jewish state. -- 🗞️ JOIN THE TORONTO SCOOP, TORONTO'S FASTEST GROWING WHATSAPP GROUP & STATUS: https://chat.whatsapp.com/IZ1SDTXA9aY5z0w4lT0vyY

Ontario MAID Case Sparks Major Controversy After London, Ont. Man Assessed Outside Tim Hortons A disturbing new report from the National Post is drawing renewed scrutiny to Canada’s MAID system after details emerged about the death of a London, Ontario man suffering from Crohn’s disease, mental illness, substance abuse struggles, and suicidal ideation. According to the report, the man was allegedly assessed for MAID (Medical Assistance in Dying) by a physician outside a Tim Hortons location rather than in a clinical setting. The same doctor reportedly later drove him to the location where the procedure was carried out. The article also alleges that the doctor exchanged extensive personal text messages with the patient, including discussions about the family’s opposition to MAID, raising concerns about professional boundaries and influence over a vulnerable patient. In another separate MAID case involving the same physician, a patient reportedly resumed breathing after initially being pronounced dead because one of the standard drugs had allegedly not been administered. The doctor reportedly later returned and administered additional medication. Ontario’s medical regulator has reportedly since ordered a minimum six months of supervision for the physician involved. The story is reigniting debate across Canada over MAID safeguards, mental health, and whether vulnerable individuals are being adequately protected.

⚠️ Permanent Daylight Saving Time Bill Advances in Congress — Raising Concerns Among Observant Jews A renewed push in Washington to make Daylight Saving Time permanent year-round is causing alarm in the Orthodox Jewish community. If passed, winter sunrises in some U.S. cities could approach — or even pass — 9:00 AM, making it extremely difficult for many working frum Jews to daven Shacharis with a minyan before work. The issue became so serious during America’s 1974 experiment with permanent DST that Rav Moshe Feinstein zt”l reportedly became personally involved. Rabbi Moshe Sherer of Agudath Israel later recounted how Rav Moshe viewed the matter as a major threat to regular minyan attendance and Jewish religious life. Agudath Israel and other Orthodox organizations have continued opposing such legislation ever since, warning that permanent DST would significantly disrupt observant Jewish communities. -- 🗞️ JOIN THE TORONTO SCOOP, TORONTO'S FASTEST GROWING WHATSAPP GROUP & STATUS: https://chat.whatsapp.com/IZ1SDTXA9aY5z0w4lT0vyY

“Recognition Without Reality?” — New MLI Essay Slams Canada’s Palestinian Statehood Decision A new essay published by the Macdonald Laurier Institute argues that Canada’s recognition of a Palestinian state was driven more by symbolism and political pressure than by realistic conditions on the ground. Iranian-Canadian writer Mehdi Moradi claims the move: • rewards dysfunctional Palestinian leadership • ignores Hamas’s continued influence and terrorism • emboldens extremist anti-Israel activism in Canada • weakens Canada’s credibility in Middle East diplomacy The article also warns about rising antisemitism, intimidation outside Jewish institutions, and increasingly radical anti-Israel protests across Canadian cities and campuses since October 7. Moradi argues that true peace requires security, demilitarization, and stable institutions — not what he calls “slogan politics.” -- 🗞️ JOIN THE TORONTO SCOOP, TORONTO'S FASTEST GROWING WHATSAPP GROUP & STATUS: https://chat.whatsapp.com/IZ1SDTXA9aY5z0w4lT0vyY

NEW DETAILS EMERGE IN THE ESTI CASE According to a Toronto Sun report, the breakthrough that led to Esther being found came after Toronto Police received a tip that she had been seen Wednesday night at a Walmart near Rexdale Blvd. and Islington Ave. Investigators reportedly reviewed security footage, canvassed the neighbourhood door-to-door, and checked residential security cameras. During that canvass, officers identified a specific residence and rushed to the home, where Esther was located Thursday afternoon. Esther appeared physically unharmed and was escorted by police for medical assessment and support. Police have not announced any criminal charges at this time and say the investigation remains active. After 13 days of searching, the community is breathing a collective sigh of relief that Esther has been found safe. Hakaras hatov is due to Toronto Police, Shomrim Toronto, and the thousands of volunteers from near and far who searched, shared information, posted flyers, davened, and never gave up hope. -- 🗞️ JOIN THE TORONTO SCOOP, TORONTO'S FASTEST GROWING WHATSAPP GROUP & STATUS: https://chat.whatsapp.com/IZ1SDTXA9aY5z0w4lT0vyY
