B'nai Brith Canada has lodged a formal complaint with the City of Toronto after a Palestine Liberation Organization flag was raised at City Hall, coinciding with the anniversary of the group's 1988 declaration of independence. The organization argues that the event violated the city's flag-raising protocol and heightened fears within Toronto's Jewish community, which is already experiencing a surge in antisemitic incidents. B'nai Brith contends that the city's decision to proceed with the ceremony disregarded the safety and concerns of Jewish residents and failed to adhere to established procedures. The group is calling for a review of the approval process and amendments to prevent similar events in the future, emphasizing the need for transparency and accountability from city officials.
