The Jewish representative group condemns an anti -Semitic video of the person who makes Nazi greeting outside of Ontario Restaurant

A Jewish advocacy group has a “hideous” video of an unknown person in the parking lot of the US Chick-Fil-A restaurant in Burlington, Ont, a fascist greeting in the parking lot of the US ownership of Chick-Fil-A-Restaurant in the USA.

The video, which was shared on X of controversial rapper YE, formerly known as Kanye West, contains someone who drives with a motorized scooter with flashing lights and a video monitor. The person comes to a standstill before making a National Socialist greeting twice, while yes Heil Hitler Play on the monitor.

The video, which was published on May 14, shortly after 6 a.m., received more than two million views before it was deleted on Wednesday.

CBC News saw the video and was able to match the Burlington location on Google Maps.

Richard Robertson, B'nai Brith Canada's director for research and advocacy, said that it was alarming for someone in Canada to create such content, which is “clearly anti -Semitic”.

“It increases an enormous amount of red flags at a time when anti -Semitism has increased in this country and we deal with a crisis of anti -Semitism,” Robertson told CBC Hamilton.

The song's choir says everything and the video that shows the strict double -Nazi greeting without a doubt.– Lyndon George, Executive Director of Harrc

“So that Mr. West then gives credibility to this content, it is simply unfortunate. Mr. West demonstrated through his recent actions that he does not take care of the well -being of others, the well -being of the Jewish community, and that he only takes care of leading the Jewish community, and that is exactly what he did here.”

Video 'continues fascist behavior': Harrc

Yes song, Heil Hitler, was released a little more than a week ago. The song that Adolf Hitler praised was published on social media platforms and music streaming services. Most services removed the anti -Semitic route within a few daysBut it was already viewed and belonged by millions.

The song and video for Heil HitlerThe fact that glorifies the Nazi leader and contains a sample from a Hitler speech remains on the social media platform X by Elon Musk X.

Lyndon George, Managing Director of the Hamilton Anti-Racism Resource Center, says that social media platforms such as X have the responsibility to defeat and stop the spread of hater-filled content, which was shot and exhibited in Burlington, Ont by Yes Song and “The Racist Video”.

“The choir of the song says everything and the video that undoubtedly leaves the strict double Nazi greeting,” George wrote in an e -mail to CBC News. “Kanye West's most recent social media post about the X -glorification of National Socialism and the praise of Hitler, normalizes hatred, racism and anti -Semitism and immortalized the fascist behavior.”

CBC News tried to contact X Corp., the parent company of the social media platform, for a comment, but did not receive an answer.

Song is 'hideous' and should be condemned: Robertson

In the meantime Robertson said, Ye's Heil Hitler Song “is vile”, adds that the video in Ontario should also be condemned a bit.

“This is not representative of Canadian values. This is a behavior that should be condemned in the strongest possible form and should not be tolerated in our society,” added Robertson.

The song and the video come when anti -Semitism in Canada seems to be increasing with increasing climb Statistics Canada Reporting on an increase in hate crimes by 71 percent to the Jewish population between 2022 and 2023.

There is also a few months after the RCMP and other law enforcement agencies have submitted a report that warn of the increasing importance of young people who are attracted to violent ideologies, with recruitment brokers use harmless social media and gaming platforms such as Discord, Instagram, Roblox and Tiktok as breeding site.

CBC News also contacted Chick-Fil-A and Halton Regional Police Service for a comment, but did not belong back. A woman who said she was one of the managers in the Burlington Restaurant, said they were not entitled to talk about the topic.
