Just Peace Advocates provided the attached submission to United Nations Special Rapporteur for the OPT in response to her call for input to the HRC 58th Session, specifically on the Real Estate/Development/Construction Enterprise (Canadian focus) Involvement in the Commission of International Crimes Connected to Israel’s Unlawful Occupation, Racial Segregation, and Apartheid Regime in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (oPt).  

We appreciate your interest and engagement during your recent time in Canada including in discussing the sales events in Montreal and Toronto related to land in illegally occupied Palestine. This submission includes a broader look at the complicity of development/construction/real estate including the flow from these industries into charities that are subsidized by Canadian taxpayers and which support the illegal occupation–a multi billion dollar enterprise.
