Trudeau government continues support for terror-linked UN group

By Neil Sharma

The Trudeau government renewed its support of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) last week, a controversial organization with deep ties to Hamas.

“This assistance includes up to $100 million over 4 years to deliver core programs that support basic education, health, social services and livelihood opportunities and protect the rights of Palestinian refugees,” a government of Canada news release reads.

Advocates are warning that the Trudeau government’s Palestinian aid money often makes its way into the hands of terrorist groups like Hamas, making Canada an indirect state sponsor of terror.

However, advocates such as the Centre of Israel and Jewish Affairs (CIJA) are warning the government about its continued support for UNRWA.

“CIJA supports legitimate Canadian government efforts to assist Palestinians in providing measures such as food security and healthcare,” said David Cooper, CIJA’s vice president of government relations.

“We remain, however, concerned about continued incidents of incitement by UNRWA staff, their ongoing support of terrorism, and their development and use of problematic educational materials.”
