Toronto’s Jewish community held a rally Monday morning outside of a Jewish girls’ school which was hit with gunfire over the weekend and said they won't be intimidated by acts of violence.

He added that "our Jewish community is strong, we're united, and we take care of each other," but called on people of all backgrounds to stand up against such violent attacks on any group."This isn't close to home, this is home," he said."We were able to see the suspects driving up on the street right here, parking right here across the street from where we are right now.

"We're standing strong. We know that they're trying to scare us and drive us away from our values and who we are, but we're standing strong," Rabins said. "We have the support of the community and we trust that, you know, they're gonna stand behind us. We're strong. We can do it together." "We join the chorus of condemnation of this cowardly, hateful act," Pasternak said. "I have seen the security video and I asked myself who are these people so consumed by hate that they would come to a girl's Jewish school and open fire."
