Canada faces legal action over complicity in Gaza genocide
Canada faces legal action over complicity in Gaza genocide
I’ve read the articles, and their demands are reasonable: First, they are arguing Canadian citizens in Gaza have been left to fend for themselves to escape and the Canadian government have imposed no restrictions on Canadian citizens to take part in the Israeli assaults.
Second, they argue the Canadian government is failing its duty to honor the 1948 genocide convention. The good news from this is that it might force the government to explain why what’s happening in Gaza cannot be considered a genocide, so we will see their true colors, documented for all posterity…. Or, they will have to admit it is indeed genocide, and measured have to be taken.
All in all, I guess the article title is sensationalist but the essence of the lawsuit is warranted.
Would love to believe this.
Yeah, I'd love to believe anyone will ever face consequences for this.
If anyone is interested:

And maybe this one too for good measure

FYI both petitions are closed.
Aw dang.
For fuck sake, suing the Canadian government for failing to prevent a genocide in Gaza? This is the kind of bullshit that got Trump elected in the US. Downvote me all you want. I'm telling you, this shit doesn't fly with the average person.
I guess you can't read? "complicity in Gaza genocide" NOT "prevent". BIG DIFFERENCE. Let me guess, you're one of those who thinks China is paying for the tariffs right? It's too complicated for you.
Sorry, who can't read, lol? The very first paragraph of the linked article says:
"A coalition of Canadian legal rights groups has launched a landmark lawsuit against the federal government, charging it with failing to prevent genocide in Gaza and violating its obligations under the 1948 Genocide Convention."
Dude, you must be so embarrassed. You should try reading articles before you post them, and certainly before you criticize someone who actually did read the artcile. At least read the first paragraph, FFS. Unless you are just trying to rack up virtue-signalling points, I guess. Then only the headline matters.
