Ottawa school board to debate hiring Jewish equity coach to help fight growing antisemitismOttawa\u002DCarleton District School Board trustees are set to debate a proposal for an equity coach to help combat antisemitism at schools What’s to debate? Approve the motion. Let’s not conflate issues please. Anti-Semitic is not necessarily equal to anti-Jewish. Semites are not only Jews. Same logic applies to anti-Jewish and anti-Zionist. If one is against Israel policies, it doesn’t mean they are antisemitic or anti-Jewish.
