UPDATE: Former IDF soldier Guy Hochman reports he has now been barred from future travel to Canada following formal complaint filed by CLAIHR along with @HindRFoundation and @LCPal_ca: “I got a letter from Canada that my visa is over and revoked.”
The Jerusalem Post@Jerusalem_Post
After Guy Hochman rejected the 'loyalty test' and refused to condemn Israel, the LA venue Fine Arts Theatre canceled his show. ✍️@HannahBrown972 jpost.com/diaspora/antis…

🚨🚨 According to multiple media reports, Israeli propagandist Guy Hochman was held and questioned for several hours by Canadian authorities upon arrival at Toronto Pearson Airport, following our complaint.
That Mr. Hochman was detained and questioned confirms that the law can still reach those who publicly promote, justify, or normalize genocide.
More info will follow.

🚨 The #HindRajabFoundation, @CLAIHR, @ICJPalestine, and @LCPal_ca have filed a legal conplaint against Guy Hochman. The video shows one of our lawyers hand-delivering an urgent request to CBSA at Toronto Pearson Airport to deny him entry. If Hochman is already in Canada, a criminal complaint has also been filed. Genocidal rhetoric is not art, not free speech, and not protected under Canadian law. No safe haven for those who are complicit with Israel's atrocities.

I’ve written to @gary_srp and @CBSANOR to alert them of Guy Hochman’s imminent arrival at the Cdn border. I believe he is inadmissible because of non-compliance with Canadian visa/ETA conditions and admissibility requirements. @realjamesyap @shaunmartinez @HindRFoundation

Guy Hochman, a notorious Israeli comedian who glorifies and incites war crimes and genocide, plans to come to Toronto Jan 19. We’re working with our valued partners at @HindRFoundation to see that he’s stopped at the border or arrested if he does.

Great piece by @KathrynMannie in @torontotodayca about the grotesque Israel vs Israel 2-state solution @munkdebate featuring Israeli war criminals.
“Olmert …has also faced the threat of arrest in Switzerland for alleged war crimes that took place when he was in office.
Livni..:has also had a warrant for her arrestissued by the U.K. for alleged war crimes committed during the 2008-2009 Gaza war.
Shaked…was refused an Australian visa for a speaking tour last yearafter making comments in support of the mass expulsion of Palestinians from Gaza.”
