The founding of the Canadian BDS Coalition

The inaugural conference call was held in April 2016, with the indication that there was interest in moving towards a shared Basis of Unity in support of the Palestinian civil society call for boycott, divestment and sanctions. 

The Canadian BDS Coalition is composed of pro-Palestine solidarity groups across Canada and works independently in support of boycott, divestment and sanctions activities against Israel, within the Canadian context, addressing local challenges and concerns.  Read the full Basis of Unity.

Over the five years there have been about 25 members groups from across Canada. See the current members and friends of the Coalition.

Member groups of the Coalition support the right of return, equal rights in historic Palestine, and the end of the occupation.
