Canada now officially recognizes the State of Palestine and is doing so with international partners to preserve the prospect of a two-state solution, according to a statement from Prime Minister Mark Carney’s office released Sunday morning.
“Over many decades, Canada’s commitment to [a two-state solution] was premised on the expectation that this outcome would eventually be achieved as part of a negotiated settlement,” the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) said.
However, that possibility “has been steadily and gravely eroded” by several developments, including the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas-led attack on Israel, the Israeli parliament’s resolution supporting annexation of the occupied West Bank and the Israeli government’s restrictions on humanitarian aid.
Since 1947, Canada has supported a two-state solution – Palestine and Israel living side by side in peace and security. Today, Canada recognises the State of Palestine and offers our partnership in building the promise of lasting peace in the Middle East. https://t.co/wyORqCiyib

Carney and the LPC will do anything for the Muslim vote.
I wonder how the Trump administration will take this?
