As the State of Israel – and Jewish communities around the world – prepare to celebrate the Jewish state’s 64th anniversary with Yom Ha’atzmaut festivities, UJA Federation of Greater Toronto has arranged for Shimon Peres, Israel’s president, to address the members of Toronto’s Jewish community with a special event.
President Peres will be joined on stage by Political Analyst, Features Writer for Newsweek, and CNN Contributor and Toronto native, David Frum at Toronto’s Sony Centre for the Performing Arts (1 Front Street, East) on Wednesday, May 9th, beginning at 7:30 p.m.
