On the third anniversary of October 7, 2023, the darkest day in Israel’s history, JSpaceCanada remembers the 1,200 Israelis and foreign nationals murdered in Hamas’s brutal terrorist attack. We remember those who were taken hostage, including those who never returned alive. We hold close the survivors, the bereaved families, and all those in Israel and around the world whose lives were forever changed by the violence, terror, and trauma of that day.
JSpaceCanada welcomes today’s announcement by the Honourable Anita Anand, Minister of Foreign Affairs, of a restriction on trade in goods from Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank.
JSpaceCanada welcomes today’s announcement by the Honourable Anita Anand, Minister of Foreign Affairs, of a fifth round of sanctions targeting two individuals and five entities for their role in directly or indirectly facilitating, supporting, financing, or contributing to extremist settler violence against Palestinian civilians and their property.
JSpaceCanada does not typically comment on matters of domestic antisemitism, as our work is focused on Canadian foreign policy as it relates to Israel and Palestine. That said, as a Jewish organization guided by Jewish teachings and values, we would be remiss not to offer broader reflections on the Prime Minister’s remarks. While we do not advocate for specific domestic government policies, an area that falls outside our mission and mandate, we believe there is value in speaking to the principles and challenges raised in the speech.
