Canadian Jews Say: Enough! (The Times of Israel)

Canadian Jews Say: Enough! (The Times of Israel)

Canadian Jews have had enough. Enough with the words. Enough with the good sentiments. Enough with our schools being shot at. Enough with Hitler salutes and talk of ‘Final Solution’. Enough with riots in our streets. Enough with the yells of ‘death to the Jews’, as we heard in front of a Jewish school in Montreal. Enough with the demonstrations in and around Jewish neighborhoods, simply to intimidate the Jewish community. Enough with our people being told to be more discreet in order not to enflame the situation’, simply because they are visible Jews. Enough with our houses of worship being picketed by extremists and haters. Enough with having to go to court to get injunctions to protect our institutions, our schools, our community centers and our synagogues.

Why Canada Must Support a Negotiated Peace in the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict (Times of Israel)

Why Canada Must Support a Negotiated Peace in the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict (Times of Israel)

Recently, Canada’s Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and International Development recommended that Canada recognize a Palestinian state without requiring direct negotiations between Israel and the Palestinian Authority. While well-intentioned, this approach diverges from Canada’s longstanding policy of advocating for a negotiated, fair, and sustainable solution. Such a move would not only complicate peace prospects in the Middle East but would also undermine Canada’s position as a principled advocate of diplomacy and negotiated conflict resolution.

Trudeau slammed for support of ICC warrants (The Suburban)

Jewish groups and political notables are slamming Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for saying that Canada would abide by the International Criminal Court's warrant of arrest against Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he entered the country.“We stand up for international law, and we will abide by all the regulations and rulings of the international courts — this is just who we are as Canadians,” Trudeau said at a press conference.
