Story summary

Prime Minister Mark Carney pledged $100 million in aid for Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank during a United Nations General Assembly meeting. The funding includes $80 million in humanitarian aid and development funding aimed at security initiatives, including police training in the occupied West Bank. Carney acknowledged that Palestinians face "immense human suffering" while Israelis confront threats from Hamas and Iran.

In August 2023, Canada also joined Britain and France to restrict imports of goods from Israeli settlements in the West Bank, a move criticized by some as undermining diplomatic relations with Israel. Meanwhile, B’nai Brith Canada reported numerous instances of antisemitic content in Palestinian educational materials that year.
