This is the best summary I could come up with:
Though the details surrounding the most recent arrest in Ottawa remain unknown, community leaders and experts say they're worried the ongoing Israel-Hamas war has led to an uptick in antisemetic and Islamophobic hate, and risks increased radicalization of youth.
But the RCMP did take the opportunity Saturday to note what they described as a concerning trend in online radicalization, including the arrest of five youths for terror-related offences since the summer.
Hashmi emphasized that the details of the specific Ottawa case were still unclear, but that based on the past, events like the Israel-Hamas war could have a radicalizing effect.
Jewish community leaders told CBC on Sunday they were dismayed to hear of the alleged terror threat and that it was certainly linked to a rise in antisemetism since the beginning of the Israel-Hamas war.
Scher praised the co-operation of Ottawa Mayor Mark Sutcliffe and police in the city in helping to maintain confidence in the safety of the Jewish community, but said it was clear there was a spike in antisemetic sentiment and actions.
Dawson noted it is not just the Israel-Hamas war having a radicalizing effect, citing the recent arrest of two men charged with terrorism-related offences linked to far-right Neo-Nazi movements.
