Except when it comes to Israelโs genocide in Gaza.
This looks a little outdated
It is but has Canada got any better ? Nope.
Canada is acting in Gaza. CAF just airdropped 21,600 lbs of aid โ food, medicine, essentials โ directly into Gaza. Ottawa condemned Israelโs obstruction, calling it a violation of international law.
Since Nov 2024, Canada has pledged $355M+ in humanitarian & recovery aid. Food, shelter, health services, mine action & economic support. Aid flows through UN, WHO, UNICEF, World Bank.
Israel blocked all aid from those organizations. Itโs why Gaza is starving. Also a few aid drops arenโt enough for 2M ppl.
Didnโt answer her question
If youโre worried Canada isnโt doing enough for Gaza, hereโs what you can do: ๐ Call your MP โ demand stronger action. ๐๏ธ Call your Premier โ provinces can pressure too. ๐ฅซ Organize local food & donation drives. ๐๏ธ Keep the spotlight on truth. I wish you the best of luck. Let me know how it goes
Iโve already listed what Iโm doing in reply to you. If you want to give me attitude, fine. But it doesnโt help Gaza.
No attitude, I applaud your efforts. I was just confused when you jumped into my feed and started putting down my country for not doing anything when we are actually doing things. It may not be enough, it may never be enough. But we are doing some things. I'm glad you are too
Ok so what can be done today to make something happen
Already answered.
PM Mark Carney: Israel must stop blocking aid. Canada demands UN-led distribution, protection for civilians & hospitals. Ottawa signals support for Palestinian statehood, tied to reforms. What do you suggest beyond these actions?
Those arenโt actions. Theyโre words. I suggest they actually take action - sanctions, boycotts, divest from investments, tear up all export permits for weapons parts to Israel, lobby the UN for a peacekeeping force to be sent in. Weโre the peacekeeping nation after all. Lots Carney could do.
I agree. What steps have you taken to put these actions into motion
I sponsor two families in Gaza by sending regular $$ donations via their GoFundMe. I march/attend protests often, boycott Israeli products, write the PM regularly asking him to do more like peacekeeping, I teach Arab refugees ESL, and post stuff here to keep my Followers informed. What do you do?
That is fantastic. That is truly a valiant effort. You should be proud. Good for you.
