Special Guest Speaker This Shabbat Morning: Joshua Wolfe of CJPAC

This Shabbat morning, we’re pleased to welcome Joshua Wolfe of the Canadian Jewish Political Affairs Committee as a guest speaker. Joshua will be speaking at the beginning of kiddush on the topic of “CJPAC: The Political Engagement People and What We Do.”

Josh is the Director of Outreach and Programming for Quebec and Atlantic Canada for CJPAC. He is a government relations and community outreach specialist who graduated from Princeton University. After graduation, he spent five years as a political advisor to a Member of the Quebec National Assembly. In 2012, and prior to coming to CJPAC, he joined CIJA’s Quebec office to lead their government relations team. He has been politically active at all levels of government, and was most recently named by Montreal Mayor Valérie Plante as a member of her newly-created Roundtable on Diversity, Inclusion and the Fight Against Discrimination.

Josh describes his message as talking “about the work that we do and how we strive to ensure that Canada’s Jewish community gets involved at all levels of government to ensure that we have an impact. While we may only be a small percentage of the population, CJPAC provides strategic ways for us to make sure we can help shape Canada’s democracy.”
