A recent report, co-authored by the Palestinian Youth Movement, Canadians for Justice and Peace in the Middle East, Arms Embargo Now and World Beyond War, identified hundreds of shipments of Canadian-made F-35 fighter jet components, other aircraft parts, and explosives and flammable materials to U.S. facilities that supply the Israeli military. The report also highlighted 433 shipments of Polish-made TNT routed through the Port Saguenay, Quebec to U.S. army ammunition plants that make bombs used by Israel in Gaza.

The report stated that “by deliberately exempting U.S.-bound arms from export regulation and allowing Canadian infrastructure to transport weapons, Canada is circumventing its obligations under international law.”

What sort of anger? The type that could be soothed by sending the White House a peace prize from a Poutinery?

Maybe if we send Trump enough poutine we can get this thing over with quicker. Send him 12 servings per day!

Canada’s independence already angers the US.

We wouldn’t want to upset the Fascist dictator of the US. I guess we’ll have to stay complicit with massacring innocent children.
