There are a multitude of impacts on Palestinians and Syrians, both because of companies operating in occupied territory where Israel is unlawfully present (the occupied Palestinian Territory and Syrian Golan), and also those operating within Israel, where Israel applies a discriminatory apartheid regime on both sides of the Green Line. While only a fraction of the impacts, we’ve outlined some key consequences in this report, including
• Land appropriation
• Exploitation of natural resources
• Entrenchment of occupation and apartheid
We conducted an audit of ‘Israeli’ alcohol products across Canada. This is a follow-up to our previous analyses such as in 2019 which found very similar results.
This year, we identified 169 unique items for sale as “Products of Israel” across British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, and Quebec.
We demand an immediate end to the importation and sale of all Israeli wine, in alignment with international and domestic law.
