On Canadian Humanitarian Aid Access to Gaza

The Modern Commons Party is calling for the immediate and secure delivery of Canadian humanitarian aid into Gaza. With each day of delay, lives are at risk—and Canada must ensure our support reaches the people it’s intended for.

We support Minister Anand’s continued efforts to press for safe access for aid trucks and urge the Israeli government to uphold its responsibilities under international humanitarian law.

“Humanitarian aid must never be used as leverage. Canada’s support must go directly to those facing hunger, injury, and displacement. The delivery of lifesaving assistance is not a political gesture—it’s a moral responsibility,” — Jack Henry, Interim Leader, Modern Commons Party

We recognize the complexity of the situation and reaffirm our belief that lasting peace will only come from a commitment to rights, security, and dignity for both Palestinians and Israelis. But in this moment, the focus must be on saving lives.

The Modern Commons Party stands for a principled foreign policy rooted in compassion, responsibility, and clarity. That means delivering aid without obstruction, working with trusted partners on the ground, and advancing solutions that reflect Canada’s values—not partisanship.
