We, the undersigned civil society organizations, have profound concerns about the legal and humanitarian implications of Canada’s transfer of weapon systems to the government of Israel. These concerns have only been amplified following the January 26th provisional ruling by the International Court of Justice (ICJ).
Canada’s export of military weapons and arms to Israel is fueling one of the deadliest and most destructive wars in modern history. The continuous bombardment of Gaza is a complete and utter injustice and obstructs any possibility of distributing life-saving humanitarian aid. Canada must immediately stop all weapons, parts and ammunition transfers to Israel.
