He is also charged with unsafe storage of a firearm, after police said they seized a firearm from his home.<\/p>\n<p>The new charges require the consent of the province&#8217;s attorney general before they can be laid. In a statement, the Ministry of Justice confirmed the attorney general had approved the charges, but said it would not be providing further comment as the matter is before the courts.<\/p>\n<p>After his arrest, Moore was released from custody on Dec. 18, 2025, on conditions that include a ban on publishing or posting anything on the Internet or social media, and staying outside a one-block radius of any Jewish community centre.<\/p>\n<p>Richard Robertson, the director of research with the Jewish human rights organization B&#8217;Nai Brith, said he hopes the new charges will serve as a deterrent and send a clear message that there are consequences for spreading hate online.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is one of the first times that the wilful promotion of antisemitism charge has been laid in Canada, and it&#8217;s important because it really cuts to the heart&#8221; of the crimes Moore is accused of, Robertson said in a Tuesday interview.<\/p>\n<p>Moore &#8220;weaponized his presence online in order to galvanize and encourage others, and to incite others even, to act in a hateful manner,&#8221; Robertson alleges.<\/p>\n<p>Moore&#8217;s account on X is still online, although it doesn&#8217;t appear he has made any new posts since Dec. 17, 2025. Prior to that date, it contained daily posts about Jewish people, referencing conspiracy theories and questioning the Holocaust.<\/p>\n<p>The account has changed the pinned post (the post that&#8217;s featured at the top of the page) to one that&#8217;s dated May 21, 2025, in which Moore claimed that &#8220;Jews have: sent legal letters threatening me; attacked my family on social media; attacked me through my business partners and regulatory body that governs my profession; had me &#8216;permanently banned&#8217; on X. Do you know what they haven&#8217;t done? Proved me wrong.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Moore used to be a real estate agent, but his registration to trade in real estate in Saskatchewan was terminated by his brokerage on May 23, 2024, the Saskatchewan Real Estate Commission said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WATCH | Saskatoon man charged with inciting hatred:<\/strong><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/1768347554_917_default.jpg\"  alt=\"\" class=\"thumbnail\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"video-item-title\">Saskatoon man charged with inciting hatred in antisemitic posts online<\/p>\n<p>Police charged Brandon Taylor Moore, 45, with publicly inciting hatred after they received a complaint.
