As I've said many times, ignore what Western leaders say and watch what they do. Trudeau 'pushing back' on Netanyahu's rejection of a Palestinian state is mere theatre. Unless and until Trudeau's government imposes meaningful sanctions on Israel, it is complicit in genocide.

Across Canada, citizens of conscience who condemn Israel’s atrocities continue to suffer unprecedented persecution. The curator of Indigenous art at the Art Gallery of Ontario has been ousted for standing with Palestinians. Here’s the outrageous letter that preceded her ouster.

In Montreal, citizens of conscience have assembled at the consulate of Israel’s genocidal regime to demand its compliance with the ICJ’s damning judgement. This is the 16th straight week of protests. We won’t stop until Israel’s genocidal regime is consigned to history’s dustbin.
