The “two-state” solution is a vehicle for normalization! It’s past time to call out the PA!

After 18 months of live-streamed genocide, after 18 months of useless Western “ceasefire” promises, we must be clear on the principles of genuine liberation. We must re-assess our tactics and be sure that our solidarity work is actually advancing the interests of the Palestinian people and working towards a future free of Zionist settler colonialism and US imperial meddling. 

For some time, we have stated that calling for recognition of THE state of Palestine means nothing more than endorsing Oslo, the corrupt PA and the bankrupt two-state solution.… Read more

All Out for Palestinian Prisoners Day


April 17 is Palestinian Prisoners’ day, a day when the people of Palestine call upon the world to commemorate and uplift their people, apprehended by the Zionist entity and the cowardly, comprador Palestinian Authority; many of these prisoners are leaders in Palestinian society and in the righteous resistance.

#IVotePalestine #IVoteAgainstGenocide 

We are close to halfway through this federal election, and Canadian political leaders have hit a new low in their pro-genocide politicking. Liberal leader Mark Carney and former foreign minister Melanie Joly are refusing to answer about the latest Canadian arms deal for Israel, despite their sham claim of halting arms exports; Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre is revisiting the old refrain of “I’ll move our embassy to Jerusalem”; Yves-Francois Blanchet of the Bloc Quebecois is praising arch-Zionist Irwin Cotler who is supporting one of the BQ’s candidates; and NDP leader Jagmeet Singh has dropped a PR person from his team because she dared (in past social media comments) to compare aspects of the Israeli genocide to Nazi fascism.… Read more

Demand to know where politicians stand – for justice or for genocide!

UPDATE #2: Those Complicit in Genocide will be held Accountable!

UPDATE #1: #IVotePalestine #IVoteAgainstGenocide

Our #IVotePalestine questionnaire* started in 2019 and continues this year, as an independent campaign committed to presenting the difficult issues that reflect the struggles and challenges of the Palestinian people. We do not believe that any single election in Canada will substantially change policy on Palestine, but we do see the educational value in bringing these issues to the public and highlighting the overwhelming Canadian complicity in genocide.… Read more

Solidarity Statement with MMIWG


The Canada Palestine Association, stands in unwavering solidarity with the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women’s Movement (MMIWG) and all the steadfast Indigenous communities resisting the ongoing violence, genocide, and systemic erasure of their people. We see in your struggle the same forces of oppression, colonization, and dehumanization that have sought to destroy our own existence, culture, and land. Together, we face the silence of the media, the complicity of state institutions, and the violence of systems designed to erase us.… Read more

BDS Vancouver marks 10 years

BDS Vancouver-Coast Salish was formed 10 years ago, and has worked consistently since then to demand “No Business as Usual” with Israel and all those complicit in enabling Zionist oppression.

The group has launched and participated in many campaigns, from Stop G4S, to Boycott Air Canada, to calling out PUMA for sponsoring Israeli teams, to Boycott Israeli Wines and most recently calling on Scotiabank to divest from Elbit Systems.… Read more
