Executive Committee "Statement on Backlash to Support for Palestine", quoting the union's X post of October 7, 2023 (official website, 2023-10-10)
On October 7, 2023 at 12:37 PM, the President of CUPE 3906 reposted a video on X (i.e. Twitter) ... shows a bulldozer destroying part of a militarized barbed wire fence built by the Israeli state, separating the Gaza Strip from the rest of occupied Palestine. ... The re-post by CUPE 3906 added the following message, “Palestine is rising, long live the resistance” ... It likewise rooted in the context that unequivocal resistance to colonial subjugation is a right enshrined under UN resolution 37/43 . ... The message we released early Saturday afternoon was enshrined in these contexts - not with intention to celebrate death of civilians or loss of life.
