OVER 350 CANADIAN ORGANIZATIONS URGE CANADA TO VOTE « YES » DURING UN CEASEFIRE VOTE

The Gaza Strip is falling into a complete humanitarian disaster due to the invasion by the military forces of Israel, along with non-stop aerial bombardment.

Over 17,000 people have been killed in Gaza, including children. Disease is rampant, food and water is scarce, hospitals have been reduced to rubble, and over a million Palestinians have been displaced from their homes in just over two months.

It is time for this bloodshed to come to an end. It is time for Canada to stand for a permanent ceasefire and to make such a call on the world stage.

This is why you must vote for an immediate ceasefire at the United Nations General Assembly today.

To be clear, Canada is already far too late on this call. But this to us is a bare minimum step that must also be accompanied by further action.

The world is watching. Canada must finally move from its current position and stand on the right side of history.

This is a question of moral clarity. Do we support a war going on where more and more children will be slaughtered, or are we on the side of peace?

Our communities – represented by over 300 leading Muslim organizations from coast to coast as signatories to this list – will not forget the answer to this question.

We must be on the side of innocent civilians. On the side of a just peace.
