Yes, I think the real contention is whether the phrase “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” is a call for genocide. The answer is: to some chanters in Canada it might be, but I think that it is a vanishingly small percentage, however for a significant percentage ofJewish Canadians hearing the phrase, it IS. Which makes it a difficult issue to address, how do you balance the right to political protest against the right to feel secure against genocide.
