Across the media landscape government cuts to longstanding NGOs has created major debate and discussion particularly on the Conservative government’s focus on slashing funding towards groups outspoken towards Israeli military policies towards the Palestinian people living under military occupation in the West Bank and under blockade in Gaza. Conservative minister Jason Kenney has been particularly outspoken in regards to the funding cuts, explicitly outlining that the government cut funding towards KAIROS due to the organizations defense for Palestinian human rights.
As critical voices towards Israel’s apartheid policies towards the Palestinian people grow across Canada and globally the Conservative government has moved in the past years to attempt to stifle democratic discussion on Canada’s policy positions towards Israel/Palestine and to criminalize the growing movement of boycott, divestment and sanctions in opposition to Israeli apartheid modeled after the global solidarity movements against apartheid in South Africa which played a key role in bringing down the racist apartheid regime in South Africa 20 years ago.
