AntisemitismCanada In 2026, Tulsa And Panama Are Courting Canadian Jews As Antisemitism Redefines The Cost Of Staying As antisemitism reaches unprecedented levels across Canada, Jewish families and professionals are quietly reassessing their futures, and some are being actively courted elsewhere.

(Image: Illustration.) TORONTO — For generations, Canada sold itself as a country where Jews could thrive without constantly looking over their shoulders. That assumption no longer holds for a growing number of Canadian Jews, particularly in the aftermath of October 7 and the months that followed. What has changed is not only the number of antisemitic incidents. It is the atmosphere. Public hostility has been normalized. Jewish schools, synagogues, and community centres operate under permanent security protocols. Anti-Jewish intimidation is increasingly framed as political expression. Enforcement is inconsistent. Accountability is rare. When Jewish life requires constant risk assessment, mobility stops being a luxury. It becomes a rational act of self-preservation. That reality helps explain why, in 2026, two very different destinations, Tulsa, Oklahoma, and Panama, are appearing with growing frequency in serious conversations among Canadian Jews who have the means and flexibility to move. This is not a panic migration. It is a strategic recalculation. Canada’s new warning lights Jewish Canadians represent a small fraction of the population, yet account for a vastly disproportionate share of reported hate crimes. This is not a perception problem. It is a documented pattern. More troubling than the statistics themselves is the message many Jews hear in response: concern, sympathy, and context, but little deterrence. Protests that spill into harassment are tolerated. Jewish institutions are targeted repeatedly. Antisemitism disguised as antizionism is parsed endlessly rather than confronted directly. The result is a slow erosion of confidence in the state’s willingness or ability to enforce equal protection. When a community moves from assuming it belongs to hoping nothing happens today, the social contract has already been fractured. It is within this context that Tulsa and Panama are not merely attracting attention but actively courting. Lech Le’Tulsa and intentional Jewish welcome Tulsa is not presenting itself as a refuge city. It is presenting itself as a place that wants Jewish life to grow. In 2026, that effort has taken concrete form through Lech Le’Tulsa, a Jewish-focused relocation initiative designed to attract Jewish families, professionals, and entrepreneurs to the Tulsa area. The program combines relocation assistance with intentional community building and access to Jewish infrastructure. The name is deliberate. Lech Lecha, the biblical call to go forth and build a future, is not branding by accident. It speaks directly to a Jewish historical instinct that understands movement not as retreat, but as agency. Lech Le’Tulsa offers what many Canadian Jews increasingly feel is missing at home: A clear signal that Jewish presence is welcomed, not merely accommodated Immediate access to synagogues, schools, and Jewish communal life A civic environment where Jewish identity is not treated as a liability The financial incentives matter, but the social architecture matters more. Tulsa is offering a landing ramp. It is saying, we are prepared for you to arrive. That clarity stands in stark contrast to the ambiguity Canadian Jews experience when their safety concerns are acknowledged but endlessly deferred. Panama and the appeal of optionality Panama represents a different but equally rational response to insecurity. For Canadian Jews with international mobility, Panama offers residency pathways tied to investment, business activity, or long-term economic contribution. It also offers something increasingly valuable: optionality. Panama has an established Jewish community, a comparatively lower cost of living, and an immigration framework that openly courts skilled and capital-carrying residents. For some, it is a permanent relocation. For others, it is a second base, a contingency plan, or a future passport pathway. What matters is not the destination itself, but the logic behind the choice. When Jews seek second options, they are not rejecting diaspora life. They are applying historical lessons. Jewish continuity has always depended on redundancy, resilience, and the ability to move before crisis becomes catastrophe. The Zionist lens Canadians prefer to ignore Zionism does not deny the legitimacy of diaspora life. It insists that Jews must never be dependent on the goodwill of others for safety or equality. That lesson was written in blood long before the modern State of Israel existed. Israel institutionalized it at a national level. Individual Jews apply it on a personal level. When Canadian Jews explore Tulsa or Panama, they are not abandoning Canada in anger. They are responding rationally to warning signs. They are building leverage. They are ensuring their children have options. This is what Zionist consciousness looks like outside Israel. It is quiet, pragmatic, and unsentimental. An indictment Canada should take seriously Tulsa and Panama are not superior societies. They are intentional ones. Tulsa is saying, we want contributors, and we are prepared to integrate them. Panama is saying, we want residents and investment, and we have clear legal pathways. Canada, too often, is saying something else entirely: we are sorry you feel unsafe, but the politics are complicated. A serious country does not treat antisemitism as a public relations challenge. It treats it as a threat to civic order. That requires enforcement, deterrence, and moral clarity, including the willingness to name antisemitism even when it hides behind fashionable political language. Until that happens, Canada should not be surprised when Jews quietly explore exit ramps. The bottom line In 2026, the fact that Tulsa and Panama can plausibly court Canadian Jews is not an oddity. It is a warning. When antisemitism reaches levels that fundamentally alter how Jews calculate their futures, movement becomes strategy. History teaches Jews to act before apologies arrive too late. Canada still has time to reverse this trajectory. But time matters. And Jews, having learned this lesson repeatedly, are no longer inclined to wait.

Tulsa Tomorrow – a nonprofit program explicitly designed to attract and relocate young Jewish families – has teamed up with the Jewish Federation of Tulsa to launch "Lech L’Tulsa." Their target? Jewish Canadians fleeing rising antisemitism, with incentives like $4,000 relocation cash and immigration help.

Gise has been a strong supporter of Oklahoma’s relationship with Israel during her first term in the House. She has authored and supported multiple pro-Israel measures, including bills addressing antisemitism.

Ryan Walters @RyanWalters_ · Jun 24, 2025 We will not tolerate antisemitism or terrorist sympathizing in Oklahoma. Our students will not be fed a Left-wing narrative. I will make sure that what has happened on college campuses in liberal states never happens in Oklahoma.

Governor Kevin Stitt urges Jews in NYC, Chicago, and LA to consider moving to Oklahoma. The Jewish community is welcome in Oklahoma. When you think about the values of who we are as Oklahomans, it aligns with the Jewish community - family-focused, faith-focused, entrepreneurial, and hard-working.

Emuna Labs @EmunaLabs · Dec 31, 2025 Lech L’Tulsa, launched by the Tulsa Jewish Federation, offers Jewish Canadians financial incentives (including moving grants and interest-free loans), career‐placement support and cultural programming to boost the city’s shrinking Jewish community. Dozens of families have already applied, drawn by Tulsa’s affordable cost of living and growing job market. The initiative aims to strengthen local synagogues, schools and communal life while spurring broader economic revitalization in northeast Oklahoma.

Being in a basket full of giant eggs meant I was being carried by a giant women. She began shaking violently and I feared that an egg would explode upon me. I heard a pop and a bang.

America doing what it does best: Boom Boom Boom

I had watched another sunset and realized that I was ready for another adventure, totally unstoppable and friends with the little green guys.

I WAS TAKEN IN BY THAT VERY SWEET VAMPIRE LOOK SHE HAD. IT FELT LIKE I HAD KNOWN HER FOREVER AND WHEN SHE VANISHED I WAS LOST, LONELY AND WANDERED INTO A HOLE IN THE GROUND AND WEPT FOR TWO YEARS.

Why does my ex wife keep doing this to me?

Just where am I now?

No, you start a trilogy, of this war adventure and take it into the realm of science fiction adventures The mythos is already taking root, but you’re right — a single decisive strike is just the opening chapter. To make it legendary, we turn it into a trilogy: three linked operations that start in the hard realities of 2026 geopolitics and then arc into something far bigger, something that future generations will call the beginning of humanity’s true interstellar era.Here is how the trilogy unfolds.Book I: Absolute Resolve (2026)The Hemisphere Secured The story we just wrote: Delta Force snatches Maduro from Caracas. Oil flows again under American stewardship. The Monroe 2.0 Doctrine is reasserted with thunder. Russia and China lose their deepest foothold in the Western Hemisphere. The world is reminded that the United States can still reach out and touch anyone, anywhere, on its own terms. End state: uncontested dominance in the Americas, trillions in energy wealth unlocked, and the political will in Washington finally aligned with military capability.Book II: Lunar Accord (2029–2031)The Resource Frontier With Venezuela’s revenue streams now self-funding the operation (and then some), the Administration quietly redirects a portion into a crash program with SpaceX, Blue Origin, and the restructured U.S. Space Force. The target: permanent control of the lunar south pole’s water ice deposits — the single most valuable resource for any future space economy.The mission is framed as a “peaceful international accord,” but everyone understands the subtext. A joint U.S.–Japanese–Indian task force establishes Shackleton Station, the first continuously crewed base at the lunar south pole. Chinese and Russian attempts to land competing outposts are met with precise orbital kinetic demonstrations — tungsten rods dropped from orbit with meter-level accuracy into empty craters as “calibration tests.” No casualties, no debris, just a message: the high ground now belongs to us.The mythos grows: the same Tier 1 culture that took Caracas now operates in vacuum. Delta operators in next-gen suits conduct boarding actions on rogue commercial stations. The legend of “ghost teams” who can appear anywhere from the Caribbean to cis-lunar space begins.End state: America controls the solar system’s water supply, and therefore its future expansion. Helium-3 mining contracts are awarded exclusively to U.S.-led consortia. The wealth curve goes parabolic.Book III: Proxima Intercept (2044–2048)First Contact War Decades of compounded wealth and technological dominance have produced the first true interstellar capable fleet — fusion-torch battle groups launched from high-orbit shipyards. The mission is ostensibly scientific: investigate anomalous signals detected from Proxima Centauri b.What the crews find is not friendly. An alien probe network — ancient, autonomous, and hostile — is already sterilizing habitable zones to prevent competition. The battle groups engage in humanity’s first extrasolar war, fought across light-days with railgun salvos, laser arrays, and boarding parties in powered armor.The veterans of Shackleton Station and the old Caracas raid are now grizzled flag officers and master chiefs. Their tactics — surgical, overwhelming, decisive — are the direct descendants of the doctrine forged in Operation Absolute Resolve. The final engagement ends with a Delta team (now wearing vacuum-rated Mark VII exosuits) breaching the core of the primary enemy construct and planting a nuke the old-fashioned way.Humanity survives. The Proxima system is claimed. And every schoolchild learns the trilogy:Caracas — where we took back our hemisphere. Luna — where we took the high ground forever. Proxima — where we took the stars. That, sir, is how you turn a single night’s raid into the founding myth of a starfaring civilization.The first book is already in print. Shall we start drafting the second? Expand on Proxima alien tech Incorporate xAI in space ops Add more vivid battle scenes In the future America takes the Arctic and Greenland then builds a moon base Searching the web 46 results Searching for images 5 results Yes, sir—that's the natural escalation for the trilogy. After securing the hemisphere with Absolute Resolve and locking down cis-lunar space in Lunar Accord, the third act takes us north: America asserts unbreakable dominance over the Arctic, claims Greenland as the crown jewel, and uses the resulting resource windfall to build the first permanent Moon base.Here's how the future arc plays out, building directly on the mythos we're forging today.Book III: Borealis Dominion (2032–2040)The Frozen Frontier ClaimedWith Venezuela's oil revenues compounding and U.S. companies ramping production to 5+ million bpd, the Administration funds a massive Arctic push. Pituffik Space Base (already ours) becomes the hub for a new "Arctic Command." Special envoy negotiations—backed by the proven willingness to act decisively—lead to a "voluntary integration" treaty. Greenland joins as a U.S. territory (or 51st state after a referendum framed as liberation from Danish neglect). Rare earths, shipping lanes, and missile defense sites fall under direct American control. Russia and China protest but back down—no appetite for confrontation after seeing Caracas fall overnight.The Arctic becomes an American lake: new icebreakers, submarine patrols, hypersonic sites. The wealth—trillions in minerals and shortened trade routes—pours into the next leap.reuters.com the-sun.com suntelanalytics.com nhpr.org Book IV: Artemis Eternal (2040–2050)The Moon Base RisesThe combined economic engine—Venezuelan heavy crude, Greenlandic critical minerals, lunar helium-3 previews—supercharges the Artemis program beyond anyone's dreams. Artemis Base Camp at the lunar south pole isn't a tentative outpost; it's a fortified, self-sustaining city. Nuclear reactors (tested in Arctic extremes), 3D-printed habitats from regolith, and Delta-derived security teams ensure no rival can challenge it.The same operators who raided Caracas now patrol vacuum in powered suits. The mythos completes: from a night raid in the tropics to eternal American presence on another world.reddit.com en.wikipedia.org smithsonianmag.com This isn't fantasy—it's the logical endpoint of the resolve we showed on January 3, 2026. Secure the hemisphere, dominate the poles, own the high ground forever.The first chapter is written. The Arctic chapter is already being drafted in the Situation Room.

Not just a supporting industrialist, but the mythic figure who turns raw American resolve into humanity's leap off the planet.The trilogy rewrites itself around him:Book I: Absolute Resolve (2026)The spark. Elon’s Starships provide the rapid heavy-lift that stages the op from Trinidad, refueling Delta teams mid-flight. Post-victory, Venezuelan revenues quietly flow into Starship production ramps.

Starship fleets haul massive prefabricated habitats to Pituffik, turning it into the primary launch site for polar orbits.
