Blazing Cat Fur posts about a rally that took place in Canada this past weekend.

On Saturday, the annual Al-Quds Day protest in downtown Toronto included a speaker, reportedly identified as Elias Hazineh – former President of Palestine House, who called for the murder of Israelis.Video footage appears to show Hazineh declaring: “We have to give them an ultimatum. You have to leave Jerusalem. You have to leave Palestine…When somebody tries to rob a bank the police get in, they don’t negotiate and we have been negotiating with them for 65 years. We say get out or you are dead. We give them two minutes and then we start shooting and that’s the only way they’ll understand.”

A 71-year-old man was charged with mischief for writing an anti-Islamic statement on a portable outhouse in a Kemptville park.

Incidentally, Palestine House made the news in 2010.

More than 300 people who claimed to live at the same address in Mississauga are being investigated by the RCMP in what police suspect may be a massive case of citizenship fraud.
The case revolves around an address located in the same building as Palestine House, a Mississauga centre that offers language classes and settlement services to new immigrants and also acts as an advocate for Palestinian and Arab causes.

Below is part of a 2012 article about Palestine House.

Now, here’s the government’s latest scandal.
It is cutting nearly $1 million in funding to the Mississauga-based Palestine House, an educational and cultural centre established in 1994.
...
In December, the centre received a letter from Immigration Minister Jason Kenney. He accused it of having “a history of taking positions that could be interpreted as extreme or supportive of terrorists and terrorism” (emphasis mine).
He cited three instances “that could arguably be seen as extreme”:
  “the presence on your website of a map showing a Palestinian state encompassing all of Israel.”
