TDF launches independent probe into church burnings and synagogue attacks across Canada

Subhead:The Democracy Fund says it is stepping in where governments and police forces have failed, announcing a new independent forensic investigation into the wave of church burnings, synagogue vandalism, and religiously motivated attacks that have swept across Canada since 2021.# In a statement released Thursday, The Democracy Fund said it has retained a certified fire investigator and an access-to-information specialist to conduct what it describes as the first known independent forensic review of the attacks on Christian and Jewish places of worship in Canada. According to TDF, the investigation will examine approximately 100 fire investigation reports obtained through access-to-information requests to determine whether authorities properly investigated the incidents, whether the attacks show signs of coordination or ideological motivation, and whether Canadian officials followed accepted international investigative standards. The findings will eventually be compiled into a public report that could form the basis for future legal action or public accountability efforts.
