#ShutDownScotiabank

Join the campaign to force Scotiabank to complete
their divestment from Elbit and all other companies that support Israeli war crimes, occupation and the colonization of Palestine.

On October 2, activists across the Lower Mainland in BC disrupted business as usual for genocide-enabler Scotiabank and its global asset fund. Leading up to the week of action entitled RESISTING GENOCIDE: BOYCOTT FOR PALESTINIAN LIBERATION, protestors confirmed their resolve to not rest until Scotiabank and all complicit entities are forced to divest from genocide.… Read more

Who crafted Canada’s bogus “terrorist list”?

CPA Chair Hanna Kawas delves into Canada’s “terrorist list” and how the Zionist lobby was instrumental in having Palestinian and Lebanese resistance groups banned as such. Both the U.S. and Canadian governments are quick to remind us that they have designated these groups are “terrorist entities”, as they justify Israel’s extrajudicial assassinations that also murder hundreds (perhaps thousands) of civilians.
This presentation was part of the Right to Resist Meeting held May 8 in Vancouver, highlighting the repression globally and in Canada of pro-Palestine advocacy.… Read more

Zionism and its lobby groups are bankrupt!

Future historians will study how a settler colonial regime, engaged in a vicious genocide, managed to promote the false narrative of themselves as the “victim”. Academics will marvel at how this narrative was adopted and parroted by Western politicians, institutions and the media, even those claiming to be progressive. 

They will be dumbfounded how the U.S.-Israeli aggression on Gaza committed massacre after massacre, but would then escape criticism by rushing to recycle some debunked claims from nine months earlier.… Read more
