By Paul Salvatori New Zealand reminds me of Canada. And I regret I don’t mean that as a compliment. The two countries have a dearth of Palestinian voices in mainstream media. I started thinking […]
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has ruled that “Product of Israel” labels affixed to wines produced in illegal West Bank settlements violate Canadian consumer protection law, the Middle East Monitor reported. In its ruling, […]
By Paul Salvatori I was at the grocery store earlier today. There was a woman with special needs who was being a “nuisance” to the staff. She seemed like she needed help but was […]
By Paul Salvatori Toronto Mayor, John Tory, is disingenuous. Honoring Israel’s ‘Independence Day’ at City Hall this week, he emphasized: “There have been days, far too many of them where Jewish Torontonians felt insecure […]
By Yves Engler The McGill administration and Israel lobby have waged a multiyear campaign against student democracy and Palestinian solidarity and recently threatened the Students’ Society of McGill University (SSMU) financial arrangement after students voted […]
By Paul Salvatori Patrick Brown, mayor of Brampton (a Toronto suburb) and running for leader of Canada’s Conservative Party, recently took an unexpected stand on Palestine. When asked whether he believes there’s a double […]
By Paul Salvatori There was a story recently in Canadian news. In it Palestinian-Canadian professor, Samer Abdelnour, remarked: “It’s tiring. I feel like growing up in Toronto, the narrative has been so hostile against Palestinians. […]
By Paul Salvatori A while ago, I was talking to a friend about some things I was helping another go through. He was experiencing some unnecessary barriers within Toronto-based social services, specifically on account […]
By Yves Engler As more and more Canadians, including university students across the country, oppose Israel’s apartheid policies, the Liberals devoted millions of dollars in the recent federal budget to strengthen anti-Palestinian forces. They put […]
By Paul Salvatori I have a Palestinian friend who lives near me in Toronto. She wants to visit her family in Gaza but can’t. The authorities, both in Canada and Israel, are making it […]
By Paul Salvatori On the heels of Russia’s military attack on Ukraine last week, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was swift to both publicly condemn it and impose serious sanctions on Russia itself. The […]
By Yves Engler Amnesty International’s recent conclusion that Israel is committing “the crime of apartheid against Palestinians” should galvanize opposition to Canada’s most significant form of support for the “apartheid” state. Some 200 registered Canadian charities […]

By Yves Engler The Canadian Zionist Cultural Association (CZCA) was caught supporting a foreign military in violation of charity law. But it’s unclear if the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) will apply its rules to the […]
By Yves Engler One of the most disingenuous arguments made by Canadian apologists for Israeli crimes is that it is irrelevant what transpires here. If they genuinely believed this why seek to squash support for […]
By Yves Engler Did Canada’s representative to the Palestinian Authority lie or was she simply ignorant of important facts? On Wednesday Robin Wettlaufer criticized Electronic Intifada editor Ali Abunimah for tweeting that Canada “arms and […]
The controversial International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of antisemitism has been rejected by the University of Toronto’s Antisemitism Working Group, according to an official statement recently released by the university. The move follows a […]

By Yves Engler Researching registered charities is a window into the pathology of Canadian Zionism. The number, variety and sums raised by taxpayer-subsidized groups focused on Israel is remarkable. Does a country with a GDP per […]
Canada was born of empire and still thrives within that milieu. It is the progeny of French and British imperial quests in the ‘New’ World and is accompanied by its siblings within the Five Eyes, […]
By Yves Engler The Israel lobby regularly torments people and seeks to undermine their ability to make a living. While increasing numbers of Canadians are wise to their slander campaigns, some progressives still end up […]
By Jim Miles Election Non-Event Canada’s recent election proved mostly that Canadians are more or less set within their provincial agendas. The ruling Liberals gained three seats, the Conservatives stayed the same, the Bloc Québecois […]
By Jim Miles Twenty years and more ago climate talk concerned long-term global warming effects not really occurring until the mid-twenty-first century at earliest with most problems occurring toward the end of the century. I […]
By Benay Blend In the Jewish faith, there is a saying when someone dies: “May their memory be a blessing.” When many people die, as in the case of settler-colonial regimes, fascist dictatorships, mass shootings, […]

Several pro-Palestinian rallies took place yesterday in many countries around the world in support of the Palestinian people in the aftermath of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip. In Toronto, Canada, a large group […]
Israel has a right to exist and to defend itself. That’s a fact. The same is true for Palestinians – that point seems to get missed. Palestinians are, at best, third-class citizens in the nation […]
A recent New York Times made many claims about the ‘mass rape’ of Israeli women on October 7.
