History

The Canadian Jewish Review was founded in 1921 in Toronto by George and Florence Cohen (née Freelander) as a weekly newspaper, publishing in English. An office in Montreal was opened in [3] 1929 and a Montreal edition commenced publication, also in English. The motivation to establish a Montreal edition was Quebec permitted the commercial advertising of liquor, while Ontario did not.[4]

The paper was initially regarded as being more of a review of social events than a paper containing serious social and political commentary.[4] This social focus is now regarded as making The Canadian Jewish Review an important genealogical source.[5] Much of its social and political commentary was by Rabbi Maurice Eisendrath (1902–1973), spiritual leader of Toronto's Holy Blossom Temple and assistant contributing editor of the paper.[6] Rabbi Eisendrath, who came to Holy Blossom Temple in 1929, contributed a weekly column to The Canadian Jewish Review.[4] His views, opposing Zionism and his use of his weekly column in The Canadian Jewish Review to express these views, were a source of controversy.Шаблон:Citation needed Rose Dunkelman (1889–1949), wife of David Dunkelman (1880–1978), one of Canada's most successful industrialists and retailers,[7] co-founded a competing newspaper, The Jewish Standard,[8] with a specific objective of countering the views of Eisendrath.[9]

A substantially complete collection of the Canadian Jewish Review, donated by Simon Fraser University Library, has been digitalized and is searchable via the Multicultural Canada project.[10]
