Barbara Jackman Dept: In Federal Court in Toronto on Wednesday, lawyer Barbara Jackman questioned why it was acceptable for the Canadian government to send millions in aid to those living in Gaza, but Galloway was barred from Canada for donating medical supplies and funds he raised for the people. The outspoken British MP was denied entry into Canada in 2009 ahead of a four city speaking tour. The government cited his support of the Palestinian group, Hamas, which is deemed a terrorist organization in Canada. Lawyers for George Galloway suggested that if the controversial British MP is deemed to be a supporter of terrorism because of humanitarian aid sent to the Hamas ruled Gaza Strip, so too should Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper. British MP George Galloway was denied entry to Canada in March 2009. "They can't play games like this," she said. As
