Call on Canada to Ban Israeli Settlement Products and Services Entirely

Just Peace Advocates joins the Palestinian international human rights organization, Al-Haq, in its call “on the Canadian Government and Parliament to take a stance against Israel’s illegal settlement enterprise, in line with Canada’s obligations under international law including not to recognise, give effect or assist an unlawful situation, by banning trade in settlement products and services entirely.”

Just Peace Advocates joins with Al Haq to call on the Government of Canada:

Take positive measures toward respecting international law, including by banning illegal settlement products and services;

To take all necessary measures to ensure full respect for and compliance with international law norms, including the Geneva Conventions, relevant resolutions of the UN Security Council, General Assembly and the Human Rights Council regarding third state obligations toward the OPT; and
To abide by their obligations as third States and as High Contracting Parties to the Geneva Conventions of 1949, notably under Common Article 1, to respect and to ensure respect for international humanitarian law in the OPT in all circumstances.
