On Sunday, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau tweeted condemnation of the violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, at the hands of white supremacists and neo-Nazis that left three dead and dozens injured. And he acknowledged that those sentiments are just as entrenched north of the border.

“Canada isn’t immune to racist violence & hate,” said Trudeau’s tweet, which has garnered more than 112,000 likes.

Indeed, there are thousands of examples of hateful acts every year. Human rights group B’nai Brith tracked 1,728 anti-Semitic incidents in 2016 — a sharp increase from 2015 and the highest number of incidents it has ever recorded. Police-reported hate crimes against Muslims jumped by 60 percent from 2015 to 2016, according to Statistics Canada. Community leaders have also said a significant number of hate crimes often go unreported due to fear and the notion that police won’t act.
