Toronto: Communist League candidates
join protest, oppose Ottawa’s
support of Israeli war
Militant/John Steele

TORONTO—Some 2,000 people marched from the Israeli to the U.S. consulate here August 12 to demand an end to Tel Aviv’s murderous assaults in Lebanon and Gaza. Michel Dugré and Beverly Bernardo (center with glasses and foreground), the Communist League candidates for Toronto city council in wards 12 and 14, respectively, joined the action—the third since the war on Lebanon began. The two candidates and their supporters received a warm response as they distributed a campaign flyer that condemned Ottawa’s support for the Israeli war and called for the immediate, unconditional withdrawal of Canadian, U.S., and other imperialist armed forces from Iraq and Afghanistan.
