🗞️ In-depth summary

The Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs (CIJA) met with organizers of the Montreal International Jazz Festival following complaints about a performance by Palestinian artist Saint Levant. The artist reportedly sang "Ana Bakrah Israel" ("I Hate Israel"), a politically charged song from 2000. Festival leadership affirmed that the event "must remain a gathering place where everyone, regardless of their background or community, can feel welcome," and that "hatred toward anyone has no place." CIJA stated it will continue to engage with organizers to ensure cultural spaces remain "safe, respectful, and free from hate."
