It’s an eighteen-hour drive from Halifax to Toronto. Twelve from Montreal.

The one place that had no Chabad presence for 60 years, however, was the once flourishing home to millions of Jews – Poland. (Interestingly, it was from Warsaw that the sixth Lubavitcher Rebbe escaped the Shoah and came to America.)
