You have provided a platform for the arrogant racist and genocide supporter, Adam Edelman. This despite the fact that his bobsled came in absolutely last.

On July 26, 2024, CJPME sent a letter to the editor (LTE) to The Carillon in response to James Loewen’s July 25 opinion piece: “The stain on the Paris Olympics.”
In his opinion piece, Loewen highlighted the double standard of allowing Israel to participate in the Olympics when it is committing crimes against humanity in Palestine while Russia is banned from doing so.
The LTE, which emphasized the double standard pointed out by Loewen, was published on August 1, 2024, in the Carillon.
It is always encouraging to see CJPME’s LTEs published, especially when it underscores the different treatment Israel is subjected to.
