Motion urging Montreal, Quebec, to cut ties with Israel sparks controversy
Opposition party Projet Montréal is urging the city to suspend its institutional ties with Israel, according to a CBC report dated August 24. The party’s motion also denounces antisemitism.
The motion has drawn controversy. The report says it raises questions about whether the topic falls within the purview of municipal politics, and it raises that question with the matter of honest dealing about each level of government’s proper role (Proverbs 11:1). The report does not specify which institutional ties the motion covers or describe any decision on the motion.
