Canadian medical professionals treating Palestinians in Gaza are calling on the Canadian government to stop all military trade with Israel. They argue that current restrictions on arms exports are not effective and that Canadian companies are still providing components for military use in Gaza. Amid a humanitarian crisis with high civilian casualties and potential famine, the doctors emphasize the need for stronger actions from Canada. Their message gained visibility during a protest at an arms trade show, highlighting the ongoing conflict and its devastating impact on civilians.
"As a surgeon, I cannot treat a genocide. As doctors, we cannot stop a famine. So we demand that the Canadian government take meaningful action."
"The group said companies represented at the trade show have built components deployed in Gaza and cited one Ottawa company that makes sensors used in fighter jets."
