Holocaust Denial on Trial

  • Holy Blossom Temple 1950 Bathurst Street Toronto, ON, M5P 3K4 Canada (map)

Jewish communities across the globe have experienced an unprecedented rise in Antisemitism in the last few years-- and Canada is no exception. Alarmingly, many Canadians are not aware of the Nazis' atrocities during the Holocaust. These facts make Holocaust education a matter of urgency.

Join us for an examination of the most high profile, precedent-setting Canadian and international Holocaust denial cases-- the ZundelKeegstra, and Lipstadt cases, which will inform a discussion of the current challenges posed by Holocaust denial and other forms of hate speech. 

The CJLA is committed to providing meaningful and relevant educational programs to our large and ever-growing membership of engaged members of the Ontario bar, and this event is a continuing professional development program (CPD) event, accredited by the Law Society of Ontario for 2 EDI hours. However, we welcome the entire community to join us for this important and timely event
