Ron East is the “founder and Publishing Director of TheJ.Ca,” a Canadian publication that describes itself as “a Canadian-based Zionist international media platform dedicated to amplifying local and global voices that champion meritocracy, first principles, respect, and peace through strength.”
His author bio on the website states, “Born in Jerusalem and raised in Metulla, I bring a global perspective shaped by my experiences living in Germany, South Africa, and now Canada. I am a proud veteran of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), as well as an educator, community leader, and public speaker. Throughout my career, I have published numerous newsletters, award-winning magazines, and online publications. As the founder and Publishing Director of TheJ.Ca, I am committed to promoting thoughtful, principled conservative values while strengthening the Jewish community’s voice in Canada and beyond.”
East’s Facebook profile states that he now lives in Winnipeg, and describes him as a “proud Zionist,” “prominent Israeli-Canadian,” and someone who is “passionate about Jewish culture & identity.”
East’s publication, The J, has published at least two articles about the Find IDF Soldiers project.
