Surging, Stable, or Subdued: The Jewish Perception of Antisemitism in Canada’s Southernmost Region
-
John Cappucci
Abstract
This article explores the Jewish perception of antisemitism in Windsor-Essex by surveying forty-nine Jews living in the area. Those surveyed were asked about their level of concern with the state of antisemitism, possible causes, and how Windsor-Essex compares to other Canadian regions. The researcher found that respondents are moderately concerned with the state of antisemitism. They also identified several dissimilar causes for antisemitism. A majority believe there are similar levels of antisemitism found across Canada. The researcher hypothesizes that demographic factors will impact the respondents’ perception of antisemitism. After a comparative analysis, the researcher finds that there is no such discernable relationship. The researcher believes that future studies need to incorporate factors that go beyond the basic ones to better understand how antisemitism is perceived by Jewish Canadian communities.
