Ryerson University PASSES Resolution Adopting Definition of Antisemitism.
The Ryerson Student Union adopted the Ottawa Protocol on Combating Antisemitism which equates antisemitic behavior to anti-Zionist rhetoric. The RSU’s executive on March 29 passed a motion changing its definition of anti-Semitism to add the Ottawa Protocol on Combating Anti-Semitism, adopted by the federal government in 2012. SSI at Ryerson University President Rebeccah Katzman introduced the resolution, co-sponsored by StandWithUs Canada, incorporated in the Anti-Oppression Glossary," providing the following quote: |
“Now I can confidently say that this motion makes it far more difficult for anti-Semites to perpetuate anti-Semitism at the student government level, and now, we are able to hold them accountable."
