  • Preserving Centuries of Jewish Heritage in Ukraine: an Interview with Meylakh Sheykhet
    Preserving Centuries of Jewish Heritage in Ukraine: An Interview with Meylakh Sheykhet In February 2011, Mr. Sheykhet, the Director of the Union of Councils for Jews for the Former Soviet Union, visited the Ukrainian Canadian Research and Documentation Centre in Toronto. Mr. Sheykhet has been working for over 25 years on the preservation of sites of Jewish heritage in Ukraine. He lives in Lviv. Interview conducted by Orest Zakydalsky, researcher, UCRDC. Translated from Ukrainian How and why did you start your work? When perestroika started, people began to come out of hiding, their internal hiding. For many living in constant fear lost all sense. People began to organize, to think, to work together. This was and unimaginable joy. I got to know Iryna Kalynets, and many others, and we did a lot together. Back then anyone travelling to Ukraine had to go through Moscow. I had very good contacts in Moscow, and prominent rabbis who had their roots in Ukraine began to visit, and wanted to see what was left of Jewish heritage after communist rule. For the Jewish people, Ukraine is the cradle, where religious movements were founded, where there was a high culture, which was born in Halychyna, in Bukovyna, in Volyn, which continues to nourish the Jewish world with its dignity, its spirituality. And this all came from Ukraine. And so people from the West began to come. And because I was well-known in dissident circles, they came to me. Also, I knew a lot of languages – Yiddish, Ukrainian, English, Russian – I grew up in a multilingual world, and it was easy for me to talk with them.

  • Canada and the Middle East Today: Electoral Politics and Foreign Policy
    CANADA AND THE MIDDLE EAST TODAY: ELECTORAL POLITICS AND FOREIGN POLICY Donald Barry Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper came to power in 2006 with little experience in foreign affairs but with a well developed plan to transform his minority Conservative administration into a majority government replacing the Liberals as Canada’s “natural governing party.”1 Because his party’s core of Anglo-Protestant supporters was not large enough to achieve this goal, Harper appealed to non- traditional Conservatives, including Jews, on the basis of shared social values. His efforts were matched by those of Jewish leaders and the government of Israel to win the backing of the government and its followers in the face of declining domestic support for Israel and the rise of militant Islamic fundamentalism. These factors accelerated a change in Canada’s Middle East policy that began under Prime Minister Paul Martin, from a carefully balanced stance to one that overwhelm- ingly favors Israel. Harper’s “pro-Israel politics,” Michelle Collins observes, has “won the respect—and support—of a large segment of Canada’s organized Jewish community.”2 However, it has isolated Canada from significant shifts in Middle East diplomacy and marginalized its ability to play a constructive role in the region. Harper and the Jewish Vote When he became leader of the Canadian Alliance party, which merged with the Progressive Conservatives to form the Conservative Party of Canada in 2004, Tom Flanagan says that Harper realized “The traditional Conservative base of Anglophone Protestants [was] too narrow to win modern Canadian elections.”3 In a speech to the conservative organization Civitas, in 2003, Harper argued that the only way to achieve power was to focus not on the tired wish list of economic conservatives or “neo-cons,” as they’d become known, but on what he called “theo-cons”—those social conservatives who care passionately about hot-button issues that turn on family, crime, and defense.
