Global Affairs Canada gave $450,352.00 to CADSI, the national voice of the arms industry in Canada, in 2022-23. UN Experts say "arms exports to Israel must stop immediately" and note arms companies have obligations to respect human rights too: https://t.co/zBjgjOwV27

Maybe that’s too much to ask, knowing you and your colleagues pensions are hanging on the line..

Instead of asking people to sign a petition, how about you actually do something useful like threaten to pull your support for this government unless it stops facilitating a genocide and famine?
Canada pulled funding for UNWRA without any investigation and now Gazans are facing starvation amidst Israeli bombardment. Please sign this petition calling on the Government of Canada to restore UNWRA funding. https://t.co/DRqu0EMSf2

It’s never too late for you to close up shop before you end up at The Hague. #ShutDownCANSEC
"It's never too late" for Canada to begin investing in munitions production, @christynmc told the CBC's David Cochrane last night. For the @CanadianForces, for the Ukrainians, and for our collective security. 🇨🇦🇺🇦

Breaking: UN calls for arms embargo on Israel and specifically names Canada's role and obligation to end exports. Also notes “State officials involved in arms exports may be individually criminally liable.” We're looking at you @melaniejoly @GAC_Corporate

Shut the fuck up
.@UNRWA, After years of aiding and abetting Hamas terrorists, you have absolutely ZERO say in how we respond. After standing by as 12 of your employees murdered, raped and kidnapped Israelis, you have absolutely ZERO say in how we respond. After turning a blind eye while

The lobby of the building where CADSI the voice of the weapons industry in Canada works was occupied today with the message #StopArmingGenocide. Given the companies that arm Israel will be at the CADSI-organized CANSEC arms show May 29-30 the promise was also made to #StopCANSEC.

At least 26 out of the 35 hospitals in Gaza are non-operational due to Canada-backed Israeli airstrikes, and Canadian politicians are more concerned that a protestor in Toronto waved a Palestinian flag on a hospital, one of many sites a flag was waved along the protest route.
The demonstration at Mount Sinai Hospital yesterday was reprehensible. Hospitals are places for treatment and care, not protests and intimidation. Â I strongly condemn this display of antisemitism. In Toronto and across Canada, we stand with Jewish communities against this hate.
