Five people have been arrested and charged with wilful promotion of hatred after anti-Semitic signs were displayed during a protest in Toronto.
Toronto police say five suspects attended a demonstration on March 15 at the intersection of Bathurst Street and Sheppard Avenue West, a predominantly Jewish neighbourhood, where protesters and counter-protesters clashed over support for Israel.
