Coalition Against the Deportation of Palestinian Refugees

 
Throughout the past year the Coalition Against the Deportation of Palestinian Refugees has led a Montreal based campaign to fight the deportation of more than 100 Palestinian refugees from Canada. A majority of the pending Palestinian deportations are slated for the coming weeks and months, so there are a series of actions and events, which are being organized to build support for the fight against Palestinian deportations.

The political power of collective action and popular support for the Palestinian refugees was clearly illustrated this past month with the case of Osama Saleh. After a persistent political campaign, Osama's pending deportation to the West Bank was halted by a Canadian Federal Court Judge. The Coalition Against the Deportation of Palestinian Refugees continues to highlight the case of Khalil Ayoub, 67, Nabih Ayoub, 69, and Therese Boulos Haddad, 62, three Palestinian refugees from the refugee camp of Ein El-Helweh in Lebanon who have taken sanctuary in the Notre-Dame-de-Grâce Church since the 30th of January 2004 in order to escape deportation.

Despite this fight against Palestinian deportations, Citizenship and Immigration Canada maintains that their decision to attempt to deport Palestinian refugees to the illegal and deadly Israeli military occupation, which plagues daily life throughout Occupied Palestine and to the violence, poverty and persecution which defines life in the Palestinian refugee camps of Lebanon. Furthermore, there is clear Canadian acknowledgement of the danger and persecution faced by Palestinians in the Occupied Territories. This acknowledgment is outlined by the travel advisory issued by Foreign Affairs Canada .

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une Politique éditoriale , qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.

This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an Editorial Policy , which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
