Canada's New Democratic Party (NDP), led by Jagmeet Singh, has put forward a non-binding motion calling for the recognition of a Palestinian state. This motion has sparked considerable debate within the Canadian parliament and has drawn criticism from various quarters, including Israel and its Ambassador to Canada, @MoedIddo. Critics argue that the motion rewards Hamas, a group they label as a terror organization, and is one-sided. The motion is seen as potentially deepening divisions within the ruling Liberal Party and has been described by some as backing a Palestinian Authority, labeled a corrupt entity that has not held elections in over a decade, pays cash incentives to terrorists, and educates its children to slaughter. Canadian legislators are due to vote on this motion, which has also been criticized for its implications.

To vote in favour of recognizing a Palestinian state at this time would mean Canada’s parliament would be rewarding Hamas. MPs need to say no to this motion. Read& RT #cdnpoli #IStandWithIsrael https://t.co/Ye5V62fRKZ
