The Canadian government will begin airdropping aid into Gaza within the next week, a government source tells CBC News.

    Well once that starts happening I can say there’s something Canada’s walking the walk on ahead of the US.

      Might lose us the election to the conservatives. The conservative government is still calling to aid Israel and stop “helping hamas”.

        I doubt it, we’re very Isreal oriented but there is still a discussion on the ethics of the IDF among folks… even with our media being absolutely disgraceful in their reporting.

        Do what’s right and then figure out how to spin it. Though this really shouldn’t need much spin, a relatively small % of the population are against things like aid, even if they support Israel.

    If they can drop whatever they like without israel controlling it then they should force israel to just drive it in. This is so backwards.

    Nice, more debt Canada can’t afford

    How about air dropping some housing locally or maybe some groceries

          Then don’t be pissy about others getting help and seek some yourself. I’m sure there is a food bank in your community that can help you.

            I need things like a doctor, but my taxes aren’t being spent to fix such issues

            Or maybe an apartment that costs less than 800 thousand dollars

            I can’t wait to leave Canada for a country that looks after their own people first and foremost

              Good luck as the countries that have a better record than Canada are more expensive to live in and are harder to immigrate to. Though I suspect we won’t miss you all that much.
