On March 4, 2026, Alexandra Lavoie, a French journalist for Rebel News Online, reported on X:
MONTREAL: Overnight, three different Jewish businesses — a pharmacy, a kosher pizza restaurant, and a butcher shop — were targeted with swastikas vandalized on their windows. This comes after a series of attacks on Jewish institutions and businesses following U.S. and Israeli strikes in Iran.
In a subsequent X post, Alexandra Lavoie reported:
NEW: Surveillance footage from 2 a.m. shows a man dressed entirely in black spray-painting swastikas on Jewish businesses in Montreal.
