Ontario Solicitor General Michael Kerzner is once again calling on the Toronto police to crack down on “hate-motivated offences,” citing “mob intimidation” during the anti-Israel protest at the Eaton Centre on Boxing Day.

Kerzner sent a letter to Toronto Police Chief Myron Demkiw and Toronto Police Services Board Chair Shelley Carroll this week calling on the force to take action.
