Canadian organization ignores govt. warning against boycotting Israel

Canada

A Canadian organization is defying the government’s warning not to encourage boycotts against Israel.

The Canadian Friends Service Committee says it will support the 'Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions' campaign against Tel Aviv over its aggressive policies. The religious organization says it will ignore the government’s threat to use hate crime laws against any group which calls for the boycott of Israel. Back in January, Ottawa signed a memorandum with Tel Aviv to fight the campaign which is gaining momentum worldwide. The movement calls for the boycott of Israel on economic, cultural and intellectual levels over its occupation of Palestinian land and aggressive policies against Palestinians.
