Public statement

Mennonite Church Canada passed a resolution at its July 2016 Assembly that asks its General Board, regional churches, congregations and members "to avoid investing in or supporting companies that do business with Israeli settlements and the Israel Defense Forces", and encourages the Government of Canada to support measures "including through economic sanctions". Its website republishes the text in a January 2026 network document.
