#IVotePalestine

Just Peace Advocates joins with the Canada Palestine Association, and other organizations to say:

Join our EVENT page

In the upcoming Canadian general election scheduled for October 21, 2019, we commit to vote for candidates and parties that:

• Support Palestinian human and national rights including the inalienable right to self-determination.

• Oppose Israeli ethnic cleansing, war crimes and apartheid.

• Recognize the fundamental rights of the Arab-Palestinian citizens of Israel to full equality.

• Respect, protect and promote the rights of Palestinian refugees to return to their homes and properties as stipulated in UN resolution 194.

• Support ending Israeli occupation and colonization of all Arab lands and dismantling the Wall.

• Oppose Canadian tax-deductible status for the Jewish National Fund JNF, HESEG Foundation and all Zionist organizations that are disguised as charities while supporting the Israeli military and settlements.

• Recognize the rights of Canadians to support the Boycott Divestment and Sanctions BDS movement as a non-violent strategy to force Israel to abide by UN resolutions and all international humanitarian laws, and

• Oppose condemning or criminalizing people or organizations who support the BDS Movement.

• Oppose the anti-Palestinian, anti-democratic and politically charged IHRA definition of anti-Semitism.

CHECK out Roger Water’s message

EKOS Poll 2017 indicated that 66% of Canadians see Sanctions on Israel as reasonable. When Conservative voters removed 75% agreed agreed.  A chance for candidates and parties to align with Canadian values.
