National Newswatch: Canada's most comprehensive site for political news and views. Make it a daily habit.
OTTAWA — A spokesman for the chair of an all-party parliamentary group says it is"carefully" reviewing how it handles events with outsideguests after a newspaper publisher accused of holding antisemitic views took part in a recent gathering.
In a written statement to the The Canadian Press, Khatatba says he was indeed invited to attend by Palestinian organizations and denied perpetuating antisemitism and Holocaust denialism. Conservative MP Larry Brock, the NDP's Niki Ashton and the Green Party's Elizabeth May, among others, were also at the event.
In his statement, Khatatba said his newspaper is"not antisemitic, and we have never spoken badly about Jews in Canada or other countries. Rather, we criticize the Israeli occupation policy and stand by the Palestinian people."
