"The article reports that Canada was not involved in any operations and had no advance notification of the U.S. strikes. However, publicly available reporting from CBC News indicates that up to 18 Canadian Forces members were deployed on exchange with U.S. units in Bahrain and Qatar at the time of the strikes. Former senior Canadian general Denis Thompson stated that, absent explicit restrictions from Ottawa, it is highly likely that Canadian officers embedded with U.S. forces would have been involved at some level in planning or coordination."

Cette histoire est profondément préoccupante, étant donné que des soldats de l’armée israélienne, complices du génocide et de la famine à Gaza, se sont rendus à plusieurs reprises dans ces écoles et ont parlé à ces enfants. Continue reading

All of this to say, thank you for reporting on Israel’s restrictions affecting Doctors Without Borders’ humanitarian operations in Gaza. Please continue to do so, particularly as mainstream media marginalizes Palestinian perspectives and relegates them to the end of articles. Continue reading

"Both the journalist and CBC deserve thanks for such a compelling human interest story, which leaves the listener informed and inspired." Continue reading

Palestinians’ claims of ownership are rarely approved; many families depend on decades-old Ottoman-era documents or were never permitted to formally register their land in the first place. This is an illegal decision that amounts to de facto annexation under occupation and reflects Israel’s greater escalating annexation, occupation, and apartheid policies in the occupied West Bank.

"You state Huckabee’s comments were taken 'out of context' but this is absolutely untrue. Exactly what 'context' were they taken out of? His comments were clear and unequivocal and represents an established pattern of US foreign policy that shows complete disregard for international law and norms of behaviour." Continue reading

The article lacks any reference to the international law context. For example, whether U.S. strikes in June were authorized under international law, whether these attacks violated the UN Charter, and what Iran’s rights are under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, all merit inclusion in the article in order to provide the reader an adequate, balanced understanding of the situation.  Continue reading

"We question your quoting of COGAT’s statistic that “less than 1% of the total aid” going into the Gaza strip is contributed by the 37 aid groups whose licenses are to be revoked. Where was the 1% statistic derived from? What was included in the 1%? Tents? Food? Baby formula? Water? Medical supplies? What about medical, public health and sanitation services? As you indicated later in the article, Palestinians in Gaza rely on aid groups for food, water, health care, shelter and other essentials." Continue reading

Your investigation sheds an important light on Canada's concerning transfer of Canadian-made military components to the United States with the knowledge that will be used by Israel. Continue reading

I appreciate that your analysis did not isolate Canada’s sovereignty concerns from its broader global responsibilities. Your willingness to question defence spending increases, economic realignment, and Canada’s stance on Gaza reflects the kind of rigorous, independent journalism that strengthens public discourse.
