Prime Minister Stephen Harper made a stop at the Calgary Jewish Community Centre Thursday evening.
He visited on the third night of Hanukah, played some games and helped light the menorah.
“Laureen and I do something for Hanukah every single year. And part of the reason for that is my father, my late father always said, as a Christian, never forget about the Jewish people at Christmas.”
He also passed on his support for the Jewish people and the plights facing Israel.
