Former mayor of Toronto John Tory, “chanced” upon a Purim party while stopping by at a phone repair shop.
The Mayor, who came to pick up his glasses which he forgot there the day prior, was met by 3 Bochurim from the Toronto Zal who were in the midst of a Purim party with the employees.
The unassuming Bochurim approached the Mayor and asked if he’s Jewish, to which he gladly responded yes.
As they rolled up the arm sleeve, they asked for the name, “John, John Tory” he responded.
The Bochurim shocked by the Hashgacha Pratis, assisted him in fulfilling the Mitzvos of Purim, and wrapping Tefillin.
they had no clue what he looked like! bh!
His mother’s mother is Jewish (and therefore his mother and therefore he)! Great Hashgocha Protis. He needs strength at this time. And they made him “a forehead who has put on Teffilin!”
Kol hakovod guys!!
