Uqaqtittiji, I have a petition from 65 Canadians led by Doctors Against Genocide.
The petitioners are calling for the implementation of the Geneva Conventions, as well as making sure that international assistance accountability act requires all Canadian foreign aid to uphold human rights and international legal standards.
The petition is calling on citizens and residents of Canada to call upon the Government of Canada to do five different things: first, to publicly and unequivocally reject the militarized aid model currently used in Palestine; second, to demand the full restoration of access for UN agencies and established humanitarian NGOs, including UNRWA and the World Food Programme; third, to insist on safe and immediate entry for Canadian health care workers and other international humanitarian personnel to Palestine; fourth, to withhold Canadian funding from any entity or model that does not comply with the principles of neutrality; and finally, fifth, to ensure that all Canadian aid to Gaza is delivered through internationally recognized humanitarian channels.
