TORONTO, June 15, 2010 – B’nai Brith Canada has called for the NDP to strip MP Libby Davies of her leadership roles in the party following remarks she made at an anti-Israel rally stating that the “occupation of Palestine” began in 1948 and in support of a boycott of the Jewish State. Davies, who has a long record of anti-Israel activism, is currently the deputy leader of the NDP and its leader in the House of Commons.
