What happened
The Canadian Labour Congress announced it will refuse to handle weapons and military equipment destined for Israel, stating the action was in solidarity with Palestinian workers and calls for peace. Despite this refusal, shipping and import records indicate a steady supply of weapons and military components flowing from Canada to Israel.
Why it matters
The labor union's demand calls on the Canadian government to end all direct and indirect transfers of arms and military equipment to Israel. This action places political pressure on the government regarding its policy on military exports.
