The menorah won’t be on display in front of Moncton city hall this year during Chanukah—for the first time since the tradition began 20 years ago—says a Jewish community leader from the New Brunswick capital city in a Dec. 1 press release.
Francis Weil, president of the Moncton Jewish Community, said the City of Moncton has informed him that it will no longer set up the multi-branched candelabra during Judaism’s “festival of lights” outside its city hall.
