The NDP has decided not to prioritize Canada with some literature for the LaSalle-Emard-Verdun, QC, by-election. NDP candidate Craig Sauve (LaSalle-Emard-Verdun) has distributed campaign literature with him standing in front of a Palestinian flag and advocating for pro-Palestine policies. “If they truly stood for this country, their candidates' flyers would proudly display our Canadian flag — not a foreign one,” tweeted Hampstead, QC, Mayor Jeremy Levi. “A vote for the NDP is a vote against Canada, plain and simple.”.Sauve said in his literature he is committed to ending the Israel-Hamas War. “I vote for Craig Sauve to stop the genocide in Gaza,” he said. To stop the genocide in Gaza, he said he would call for an immediate ceasefire, demand the immediate release of all hostages, and send more humanitarian aid to it. He added he would demand a bilateral agreement on the sale of military goods and technologies with Israel. While the Canadian government has backed Israel, he said he would request sanctions on Israeli ministers who have made genocidal remarks. He demanded immediate, concrete measures to implement the International Court of Justice’s decision. Sauve said he would demand actions for justice, peace, and security for everyone in the area. “Demand recognition of the State of Palestine,” he said. “On September 16, send a strong message to Ottawa: Stop the genocide in Gaza.” The House of Commons passed an NDP motion with amendments made by the Liberals on Palestinian statehood in March.
