Re: A broken communion

"The article criticizes the WCRC for calling attention to Palestinian suffering in Gaza while being 'less vocal about the right of Israel to protect itself.' However, never is there mention of the fact that Israel is an occupying power with illegal settlements in Palestine, the birthplace of Christianity." Continue reading

 

Conrad Black's erasure of Palestine's existance requires immediate correction

"To uphold Canadian standards of accuracy and fairness outlined by the Canadian Association of Journalists, I demand that you issue a formal correction addressing the existence of a Palestinian national identity, and also correct the factual misrepresentation of past statehood offers, explicitly clarifying that previous negotiations never included full sovereignty, border control, or airspace."

Lettre de remerciement CJPMO

"Je salue Monsieur Coulon pour son analyse des sanctions posées par les pays occidentaux, et compris le Canada, contre Israël face au génocide contre le peuple palestinien. J'apprécie que votre équipe ait aussi porté attention à l'avis consultatif de la CIJ déposé en 2024, déclarant que les colonies israéliennes dans les territoires palestiniens sont illégales."

Thank you for naming what is happening in Gaza as genocide

"For far too long, the media and governments in the West have resisted calling what Israel is doing genocidal. The United Nations, genocide scholars, Israeli and international human rights organizations and humanitarian organizations have concluded genocide describes accurately what is happening to Palestinians in Gaza. It was refreshing to see genocide used in reporting by one of our national media outlets. Thank you." Continue reading

It also minimizes the impact on the civilians living there. Continue reading

CBC's unattributed use of "terrorist" in reference to 9/11 violates its journalistic standards

CJPME believes that what is required is nothing less than a total retraction of the new policy, corrections issued to every improper use of the term “terror” in any of its forms in light of this new policy, and an investigation into how the political, economic, and lobbying pressure put forward by a broad array of international actors led CBC editors to make the decision to violate fundamental tenets of the JSP — we acknowledge that such an investigation is likely beyond the scope and mandate of the office of the Ombud, but we ask that the Ombud encourage such an action in an effort to restore public trust.

Feedback regarding targetting of Lebanese journalists

Given Israel’s long and well-documented history of manufacturing lies to justify its massacres, any claims made by Israel should never be reported without skepticism or independent verification.  Continue reading
