As a follow-up to ouroriginal post, we have initiated a parliamentary petition, with the support of MP Salma Zahid. The demands of the petition were made in solidarity withAl-Haq’s calls to action for all States.
The petition demands that Canada:
Implement comprehensive diplomatic and economic sanctions on Israel, a two-way arms embargo, and a ban on trade that sustains the occupation;
Revoke charities and other entities supporting settlements and Israeli military and State entitlements to unlawfully present settlers with dual nationalities, and implement legislation to prohibit the sale of settlement goods and services;
Comply with obligations under the Genocide Convention and enforce the International Court of Justice (ICJ) orders for provisional measures to prevent irreparable harm to Palestinians in Gaza;
Fully implement the recommendations of the ICJ 2024 Palestine Advisory Opinion and 2025 UNRWA Advisory Opinion;
Cooperate in enforcing International Criminal Court (ICC) arrest warrants for Israeli officials;
Publicly condemn as unlawful Israeli and US sanctions against Palestinian human rights organizations and ensure continued financial and political support for their work;
Ensure the safety and uninterrupted passage of humanitarian aid to Gaza and provide all necessary support to UNRWA.
Sign the petition today. We need 500 signatures for the petition to make it to the House of Commons.
