A pretty weak statement that doesn't explicitly say we would arrest Netanyahu or Gallant if they ever set foot on our soil. Simply saying "we will abide by and uphold international law" isn't enough.
Notice how he stumbles over his words to specifically avoid saying "Palestinians".
I would assume you are fairly left of center, so, of course, you love him. How does it look for 2025 in Canada? I'm reading that he's in trouble, and conservatives are gaining support. Objectively, if you can, what's the outlook?
Yeah, but Canada's still stuck with his red-diaper baby. Red, in the old sense, of course. No idea how conservatives wound up with the red label. Now one can't say "better dead than Red" anymore. Well, I guess the lefties can say it now, but it's not the same.
This is incredibly shocking to me considering he was Bibi's lapdog for this entire time.. He even abstained votes on Isreal's slaughter. I should hope this is a progressive turn.
VS Trump hosting a fundraising gala weekend for him at Mar-a-Lardo? The US never signed on to be bound by the ICC so neither would be "breaking any laws" as if that bar wasn't so offensively, laughably low.
Was Israel supposed to just watch and do nothing after October 7 attacks? I feel for people in Palestine because their government is a terrorist organization. I know what you guys mean when you say “free Palestine” but I chose to hear “Free Palestine from Hamas”.
The International Criminal Court is a non-elected, appointed bunch of people who report to the UN. They have no official police force, and they have no jurisdiction over the laws of Canada. Trudeau and Freeland answer to the citizens of Canada - both should be ejected from our government.
Come for the sloganeering, stay for the light fascism.
Netanyahu is a crook and should be tried in his own country for his crimes. This ICC is for show and to placate the braying mob. Hamas started a war and Gaza is now paying the price. Same as it ever was.
Aren't we legally obligated to as part of the ICC? I assume there'd be some legals problems if we *didn't* arrest him, but I have no idea what those consequences would be.

Netanyahu is a murderer and land grabber.

What about Pee Pee Poilièvre now?
I would like Pee Pee to take a stand too.
In reality though, I'd like hear him take the same stand as Trudeau toward Bibi.
