The Canadian Federation of Jewish Students met the weekend of January 19th for its annual conference. According to the McGill Tribune, a major topic at the conference was Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s denial of the Holocaust.
In response to Ahmadinejad, the CJFS is hoping to “collect over 25,000 signatures from students across Canada to present to the House of Commons in order to persuade politicians to take action against the Iranian government and its president.” Representatives of non-Jewish organizations at the conference include Students Taking Action Now: Darfur, Students Helping Others Understand Tolerance, and Save the Children.
