Thousands gather for pro-Israel demonstration in Toronto as Trudeau, Poilievre condemn Hamas terrorists
The pro-Israel rally at Mel Lastman Square had thousands of attendees who heard from politicians including Olivia Chow and Chrystia Freeland.
Thousands of demonstrators took to Mel Lastman Square in Toronto last night in support of Israel after the country was brutally attacked by Hamas terrorists over the weekend. The confirmed death toll of the attacks is now approaching 1,000.
Politicians including Conservative MP Melissa Lanstman, Mayor Olivia Chow, and Deputy PM Chrystia Freeland spoke at the rally and condemned the brutality of Hamas terrorists.

Despite the massive support for Israel at the gathering, Hamas apologists were present outside of the rally. One said that he doesn't "feel sorry for people who support the Zionists."

Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow, who recently deleted a controversial tweet after the vicious attacks against Israel, also spoke at the rally.
Olivia Chow, Toronto’s socialist mayor, published a pro-Hamas tweet that she later deleted. I’m not sure who wrote her speech tonight but it wasn’t bad. The audience was angry and skeptical, though. She’ll probably change her mind again tomorrow when the unions get to her. pic.twitter.com/cwWWZII4jx
