The Conservatives and most Liberals recently passed a bill condemning all Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions efforts in Canada. On the 17th of February, the US Senate passed the Trade Facilitation and Trade Enforcement Act of 2015 by a 75-20 veto proof margin. The large trade policy bill includes anti- BDS trade legislation promoted by AIPAC and introduces new U.S. policy language by including all “Israeli-controlled territories” as part of Israel. Read John Baglow’s great article about the recent vote on Parliament Hill.
Meanwhile at McGill University, the Student Union just voted to approve this BDS Motion. Sign this petition supporting them and encourge the people who are building the movement, and keep on going.
