Brian Mirsky, a Fourth Canadian Jew, talks about the harsh reality that Canadians are not as accepting of Jews as they think we are, and that Jews are still treated very differently than other minorities.

This is not another ‘angry minority with an agenda, but with no new talking points’ podcast. That is not Brian, and not what this podcast is about. Brian strives to make all fair minded Canadians aware that our country is losing its core values of tolerance and fair play. These values made us stand out from other countries and made us the envy of the world.

Canada is fast becoming a country that accepts intimidation and intolerance. Violence against a community that has deep historic roots in this country and has contributed greatly to our country's success. Taken from a book about South Africa, the underlying theme for this podcast is that we should “Cry for our Beloved Country.”

Listen in to get the context you were never given, a clearer picture of what's actually happening in Canada, and a reason to care - whether or not you've thought much about Israel, Judaism, or the Middle East before.

    The Canada I Grew Up In Is Gone
    7 Oct 2026
    In the debut episode of This Will Make You Uncomfortable, you’ll meet host Brian Mirsky, a fourth generation Canadian Jew who believes that Canada's reputation for tolerance toward Jews doesn't match reality, past or present. He traces his family history from his great grandfather's flight from Belarus to his father's WWII service and firsthand witness of the liberation of Bergen Belsen, through his own experience with antisemitism in university and corporate Canada, and how a posting in France showed him how bad things can get when a country looks away.
