Jason Kenney: Opposition Parties

International Cooperation Dept: But it is also about the Conservative government s insistence on being more Israeli than Israelis themselves. That s what put this matter in motion, according to The Star. In fact, Kenney s allegation wasn t true. But it was true that Kairos has supported Palestinian relief organizations deemed to be critical of Israel. It has also questioned Ottawa s decision to cut off aid to Hamas-led Gaza and the Bev Oda affair is about two things. It is about allegations that the International Cooperation Minister lied to Parliament. That s what the opposition parties focus on.

As reported in the news.
