#5197 Pray the Proper Prayer
In our shul we say on Shabbat before Musaf a prayer for the Canadian government as our sages have taught us that one should pray for the benefit and success of their government.
What should be done on these terrible times when the government became so anti Israel, as the Prime Minister said he would imprison the Prime Minister of Israel if he would step into Canada. Should we still recite that prayer?
One can recite the prayer, yet stress that the government should change and make the proper and right moral decisions necessary and good for all.
