Police statistics say that a Jew in Canada is now 9 times more likely to be the victim of a hate crime than a Jew in the United States. Others dispute this data, and say antizionism is being conflated with antisemitism. 


So what’s the truth? 


Host Jesse Brown begins to investigate, by talking to everyday people who say they have experienced discrimination firsthand.
