Press release: CJPME is alarmed to learn that Canada’s military exports to Israel increased by 33% in 2021, amid Israel’s 11-day bombing campaign against the occupied Gaza Strip. Canada must halt this trend by immediately suspending all military trade with Israel. #cdnpoli Image
According to Canada’s newly released annual report on military exports, Canada exported $26m in military goods to Israel in 2021.

This is way up from $19.5m in 2020, and approaches the historical high-water mark of $26.9m in 1987. Image
“It is outrageous that Canada’s arms exports to Israel skyrocketed last year, even as Israeli forces were bombing residential buildings Gaza, assaulting worshippers at the al-Aqsa mosque, and shooting children in the West Bank" - CJPME's @mbueckert cjpme.org/2022_05_31_can…

Impressive letter from @NDP to the 🇨🇦 government, urging concrete action in response to the killing murder of Abu Akleh, threats of forcible transfer in #MasaferYatta, and the crime of apartheid. Thank you @HMcPhersonMP for your principled advocacy. 👏#cdnpoli
@NDP @HMcPhersonMP In this letter, the @NDP is asking the government to:
1⃣ Refer the case of murdered journalist Shireen Abu Akleh to the International Criminal Court;
2⃣ Denounce Israel’s plan of expelling the residents of #MasaferYatta (forcible transfer) and send a rep to visit the area;
@NDP @HMcPhersonMP 3⃣ Respond in a detailed way to the report from Amnesty International which concludes that Israel is practicing the crime against humanity of apartheid;
4⃣ End weapons sales to Israel;
5⃣ Immediately ban products from illegal Israeli settlements;

In 2016, 84% of @CanadianGreens members voted for sanctions on Israel.

So why won't new Green leader @AnnamiePaul speak in support of sanctions, or even answer a straightforward question on the topic? #GPC #GPCLeadership #cdnpoli Image
See CJPME and @IndJewishVoices's assessment of the GPC candidates on Middle East issues from mid-August cjpme.org/green_2020
In September during the foreign policy debate, candidates were asked whether they support imposing sanctions on Israel. Annamie Paul was one of only 3 candidates who didn't say Yes.

(Glen Murray clarified in a tweet later that he does support sanctions)

Breaking: @AnnamiePaul has been elected leader of the @CanadianGreens. In August, CJPME & @IndJewishVoices assessed Paul's positions on Middle East issues & awarded her a grade of C-.

See the full report: cjpme.org/green_2020 #GPCleadership #gpc #cdnpoli
Annamie Paul is one of only 2 candidates who refused to endorse the MP pledge to oppose Israeli annexation, which was signed by all 3 Green MPs. She refused to respond to our questionnaire. She has no foreign policy on her website.
This is how Annamie Paul responded to a specific question about whether she would support imposing sanctions on Israel. She doesn’t answer the question, other than to say that she prefers dialogue. (During @rabbleca / @ForeignPoli_C debate)
