As Israel eyes executions, Canada targets Palestine solidarity

changes introduced in the 2025 federal budget granting Ottawa explicit authority to disband organizations designated as “terrorist entities.”

It seemed inevitable that if that legislation was ever used, it would be abused. I’m not a lawyer, but I’m pretty sure that participating in terrorism was already illegal, and so this can serve only to harass people who are not doing so. Sure enough it appears to be the case — although if they have credible evidence to the contrary I’d like to see it.

That they snuck it in through the budget document is adding insult to injury. This new government has repeatedly shown complete indifference to the principles of good government that made Canada what it was.
