A historically Jewish Toronto hospital is beefing up security and the Toronto Police Service is investigating what it described as several “incidents” that took place outside the hospital during a pro-Palestinian march along the city’s hospital row on Monday night., Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow and a slew of other political leaders condemned protesters who allegedly trespassed on Mount Sinai Hospital property during a demonstration bound for the Israeli consulate.
“We are profoundly disturbed by this course of events as this protest ran the real risk of disrupting hospital operations and compromising the safety of staff, physicians, learners, patients and visitors – all totally unacceptable.” Mount Sinai Hospital was founded as the Hebrew Maternity and Convalescent Hospital just over 100 years ago by four Jewish women who raised money to establish a health care facility that would welcome Jewish doctors and patients at a time when antisemitism was common.
