A better border for 2023: Rabbi Saul Emanuel meets with CBSA

On December 23, Rabbi Saul Emanuel met some of the top people at the La Cole border crossing to recap the events of 2022 and see how to bridge gaps between CBSA and the Jewish community in 2023.

Rabbi Emanuel brought up the unique needs of our community (such as the arba minim border crisis this Sukkos).

They asked him questions about the Jewish community and explained their point of view regarding some common incidences that crop up.

Since Covid, the JCC has stepped up to help the Jewish community with big and small troubles at the border.

Rabbi Emanuel also met with the SPVM to thank them for what they’ve done for our community this year and discuss recent challenges, such as the home and car robberies that have become frighteningly common.
