The Canadian government is moving nearer to obtaining armed drones, worth $5 billion of Canadian taxpayer dollars.
We therefore insist that Ministers Alghabra and Anand, show leadership by

• Prohibiting Zim ships from accessing Canadian ports
• Ending all trade in weapons with Israel through a two-way arms embargo and ending military-security cooperation with Israel.
