    McGill University Must Not Violate Student Freedoms: CJPME

    Montreal, April 9, 2025 — Canadians for Justice and Peace in the Middle East (CJPME) is urging McGill University to reverse its decision to terminate its Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with the Students’ Society of McGill University (SSMU). CJPME believes that this far-reaching decision would not only undermine students’ freedom of speech and assembly, but would also send a chilling message that students can expect severe consequences for advocating for Palestinian human rights and liberation—antithetical to the values of academic freedom and democratic engagement.

    Canada breaks promise on arms to Israel by allowing $78.8M contract for artillery propellants

    Montreal, March 28, 2025 — Canadians for Justice and Peace in the Middle East (CJPME) is outraged to learn that Canada has approved a contract for the export of artillery propellants to the Israeli military via the United States, despite an explicit commitment from Foreign Affairs Minister Joly that she would stop such transfers. CJPME urges Prime Minister Carney to block this transfer of explosive artillery fuel and finally implement a full two-way arms embargo on Israel without any loopholes.

    Intended to Fail: Systemic Anti-Palestinian Racism and Canada’s Gaza Temporary Resident Visa Program

    This report examines the ways that Immigration, Refugee and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has failed to reunite Canadians with their Palestinian family members stuck in Gaza through the Temporary Resident Visa Program for Gazans (TRV), as Israel wages a plausible genocide and campaign of mass starvation. The TRV program is a special immigration measure launched by IRCC in early 2024 to save family members of Palestinian Canadians subject to a genocidal assault in Gaza.  Access the full report here.

    Position Paper: Leveraging Canada's Arms Trade to End the Violence in Gaza

    Israel’s devastating war on Gaza and the routine violence faced by Palestinians under military occupation have produced a catastrophic human toll, leading the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to order Israel to change its actions to prevent the “real and imminent risk” of genocide. The UN Human Rights Council and independent UN experts have called on all states to cease the sale and transfer of weapons to Israel immediately, or else risk complicity in war crimes or acts of genocide. Although Parliament voted in March 2024 in support of ending arms transfers to Israel, Canada’s actions to date have been limited and insufficient, allowing weapons to continue to flow to Israel. Canada cannot continue to export arms to Israel and maintain a close working relationship with the Israeli military so long as it is involved in egregious violations of international humanitarian law. Canada must use its diplomatic and economic leverage vis-a-vis Israel’s defense and security establishment to bring an immediate end to the violence.

    Demand the Leaders Debate Gaza Genocide!

    The federal election is underway, and we need your help to force Gaza back into the political conversation and beat the media blackout. Despite Israel renewing its genocidal campaign, the leaders of all Canada’s political parties have been nearly silent.The Leaders’ Debates will be held on April 16 and 17 in Montreal. We need to ensure that the federal leaders are directly asked about Canada’s complicity in Israel’s ongoing crimes.It’s time to ask about genocide. Click here to send an email to the Leaders’ Debates Commission and debate moderators, and insist that they ask the party leaders whether they believe Israel committed genocide, and whether they will continue to allow Canadian companies to sell weapons to Israel.

    Tell Carney to Drop Marco Mendicino

    Canada’s new Prime Minister Mark Carney has an opportunity to adopt a new approach to Israel's genocide in Gaza. In a troubling first decision, however, Carney has appointed Marco Mendicino to be his Chief of Staff, a staunchly pro-Israel politician who is openly hostile to Palestinian human rights. Mendicino has amplified far-right anti-Palestinian figures and is one of the only Liberal MPs who is opposed to a ceasefire in Gaza. At every opportunity, Mendicino has urged Canada to oppose efforts to restrain Israel’s actions in Gaza or to hold its leaders accountable for war crimes. It is outrageous and alarming that Carney would choose him for a top position of power and influence in his transition team and next government. Mendicino has been advising Canada to abandon international law and become even more complicit in Israel’s genocide. He has no place in advising Carney on foreign policy.
