We the undersigned arts and cultural producers strongly and unequivocally condemn the US-Israel attacks on Iran. We condemn the targeting of Iran’s schools, hospitals, factories and other civilian infrastructures. We demand an unconditional end to the war that has been devastating the entire region.
We firmly support the people of Iran in their courageous movements for democratic change in their country, and believe that they can only accomplish that without foreign intervention and the devastation of illegal war and sanctions.
We condemn Israel’s continued genocide in Gaza, and in the whole of Palestine, and its attacks on Lebanon.
We demand that, as the representative of the people of Canada, your government call for sanctions against Israel for its refusal to abide by international law.
We demand that the government of Canada take a position in all international fora against the expansionist and warmongering actions of the US and Israel and their stated plan for regime change through massive “death and destruction” in Iran.
We demand the immediate withdrawal of all Canadian military assisting the US and Israel in their war on Iran.
We demand that your government insist on adhering to international law by condemning the US and Israel who started the aggression.
