Canadian Minister: An Attack on Israel Is an Attack on Canada
(Shalom Life-Canada) Elad Benari - Peter Kent, Canadian Minister of State for Foreign Affairs of the Americas, said on the Iranian issue: "Canada has been concerned for some time not only about brutal repression of civil rights in Iran but also about the nuclear adventurism and the proclaimed quest of nuclear weaponry by President Ahmadinejad." "Prime Minister Harper has made it quite clear for some time now and has regularly stated that an attack on Israel would be considered an attack on Canada," said Kent and added that Israel is considered an ally of Canada. "We work with our allies. We regularly convey our concern in a variety of ways, at the United Nations, as well as one on one."
