Why does it say he was born in Bessarabia if his parents immigrated to Canada two years before?

bad source or they moved back

According to Christopher G. Curtis' "Bronfman Family" in The Canadian Encyclopedia: Year 2000 Edition (2000), Bronfman was born either in "Bessarabia or en route to Russia" in 1889 (not 1891 as previously indicated here). Victoriagirl 03:41, 18 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The name suggests that his ancestors would already have been in the liquor business back in Russia. Is anything known about that? Or is it a case of nominative determinism?--2.204.231.111 (talk) 08:43, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Saidye Rosner Bronfman

I think Saidye Bronfman is notable enough to have her own article. --YUL89YYZ 10:09, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"even though McGill University had a long history of systematic discrimination against Jews." - you are confusing Jews with Khazars. Bronfmans are not jews, they are of a clear khazarian blood.

Here's addition to the article: "the entire south-east Asian opium trade interfaces with the Bronfman dynasty and is one of the ways heroin is brought to America. The BRonfman family is a "cut-out" what is known in MI6 as front-men, controlled from London by MI6 deskme. Edgar Bronfman, the family leader, was sent to the "Moscow Center" - a cover name for the KGB headquarters at 2 Dzerzhinsky Square in Moscow, on many occasions when it was certainly not fashionable to be in Moscow". At one stage, a CIA surveilance was put on Bronfman, only to find out that Bronfmans have been bragging to CIA that they don't know the real role of Edgar Bronfman. Two Eagle Star directors - top MI6 operatives - then took control of Bronfman family about 6 months after end of WWII.

The Bronfmans were mainly in bootlegging alcohol and drugs from Canada to USA."

Friendship or a relationship with the Rockefeller and Rothschild families?

I read something about how the Bronfmans are tied to the powerful Rockefellers and Rothschilds. Some sources indicate they determine Canadian politics and foreign policy - they probably even have a seat on the Council on Foreign Relations in Canada. Just a thought - may be someone could verify this?

To be frank, unsourced conspiracy websites are not exactly CREDIBLE citations. If you knew anything about Canadian politics and foreign policy, you'd know how scatterbrained and random it can be. Kevin 01:07, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Seagram building that was donated to McGill University is on Peel Street, not Sherbrooke Street.

"Sold liquor to US cities during prohibition..."

Nice choice of words. So basically he was active in organized crime, like smuggling of illegal drugs and God knows what.
