TORONTO, May 27, 2021 /CNW/ - Unifor has donated $250,000 to Doctors Without Borders/ Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) to respond to the immediate health, mental health, psychosocial and emergency response needs, and to carry out essential emergency interventions during the hostilities in Gaza.
"We were shocked by the images of brutality and violence against Palestinians, including deliberate targeting of refugee camps, medical clinics and international news media offices," said Unifor National President Jerry Dias.
"Unifor wrote to the prime minister asking that Canada condemn the attacks, work with the international community to provide emergency relief to the Palestinian people and for an immediate end to the sale of Canadian military goods and technology to Israel."
