Immigration Minister Dept: We have clearly aligned ourselves with a particular political point of view, Barbara Jackman told the court in her concluding statements, adding that Immigration Minister Jason Kenney who Jackman called a self described Catholic Zionist used the force of Canada s immigration laws to deliberately prevent Canadians from hearing Galloway s anti war message. An outspoken socialist politician in the UK s left wing Respect party, Galloway was supposed to visit Canada on a four city speaking tour in March 2009, but was told he was inadmissible on security grounds after publicly donating vehicles, medical supplies and $35,000 to Hamas while visiting Gaza weeks earlier following the Israeli military offensive. Controversial British MP George Galloway was barred from entering Canada last year because the Conservative government has a pro Israel bias, Galloway s Canadian lawyers argued in federal court Wednesday. Mr. Kenney has no right to enforce his views on us as Canadians who want to hear George Galloway speak. As
