An object was thrown through the window of a Toronto synagogue over Friday night, according to the Toronto Police Service, the second attack against a Canadian synagogue within 24 hours.
A window of the Mishkan Avraham synagogue was broken, but no injuries were reported. An investigation was opened, but as of writing there are no suspects.
Toronto Consult General Idit Shamir said on X that the time for symbolic gestures had passed, as Canadian Jews had been left to wonder which Jewish institution would be attacked next.
"The Jewish community has heard many statements over the past 2.5 years. It has attended countless announcements, roundtables, and consultations. Yet synagogues are still being shot at. Firebombs are still being thrown. Jewish schools, community institutions, and places of worship continue to require extraordinary security measures simply to function," said Shamir. "Canada must demonstrate, through concrete action, that antisemitic violence will be confronted with the full force of the law."
Shamir noted that the incident came just a day after the firebomb attack against a Montreal area synagogue.
