I have just received information from my officials which details the appalling abuse of Canadians who were detained in Israel. These Canadians have now arrived in Türkiye. Global Affairs consular officials on the ground are ensuring that they receive urgent medical care as required so that they can return home as soon as possible. Canada unequivocally condemns the grave mistreatment of Canadians in Israel. Those responsible for this egregious abuse must be held accountable. We will continue to provide additional information as it becomes available.

Canada-Israel relations are the worst they have ever been, ambassador says theglobeandmail.com/politics/artic…


Election campaign ad in Israel: "we turned Gaza back to the stone age," followed by a counter of how many people the candidate murdered. This ad is from 2019, bragging about the destruction of Gaza 9 years before October 7. The candidate is opposition leader Benny Gantz.

The abominable treatment of civilians aboard the flotilla, including that which is documented in footage shared by Itamar Ben-Gvir, is unacceptable. Canada’s Minister of Foreign Affairs has directed officials to summon the Israeli ambassador to demand assurances regarding the safety and security of Canadians involved. Canada has already imposed strict sanctions on Mr. Ben-Gvir, including asset freezes and a travel ban, in response to his repeated incitement of violence. The protection of civilians and respect for human dignity must be upheld everywhere, at all times.


ככה אנחנו מקבלים את תומכי הטרור Welcome to Israel 🇮🇱
