Canadian labour leader pressured to resign for anti-Israel post


Fred Hahn, President of CUPE Ontario and a long-time supporter of Palestinian rights, has been slandered by pro-Israel groups and Canadian politicians as "antisemitic" following a post he made on social media criticizing the involvement of Israeli athletes who served in the Israeli army in the Paris Olympics.

Despite reiterating that his "intent was never to associate Jewish people with the violence enacted by the state of Israel," the CUPE National Executive Board has called for Hahn to resign from his position as VP.
