"The National Post’s decision to publish this is highly alarming and, unless it is corrected, demonstrates a basic disregard for widely-shared journalistic standards in Canada. Newspapers in Canada are responsible for the wire content they publish, and ignoring such an egregious violation of ethics sets a dangerous precedent."

Despite the serious ethical violations of journalistic standards outlined below, Hudson’s Bay continues to support National Post through its advertising dollars. This directly contradicts the company’s corporate commitments to integrity, diversity, and ethical business practices, as manifest in its "Charter for Change" mandate. CJPME’s media team has repeatedly urged Hudson’s Bay to review its advertising partnership with Postmedia and National Post, yet the company has failed to take any meaningful action.

"I ask once again that if the National Post is an openly Zionist newspaper, then it should clearly disclose this to readers instead of misleading them into believing they are getting balanced journalism. Your paper’s editorial stance is not dictated by journalistic integrity but by ideological loyalty to Israel."

"Despite your radio-silence Mr. Roberts, I appreciate the fact that you read my letters. I sincerely hope that my concerns, even if you believe them to be in bad faith, help you reflect on your publications' bottom line."
