Trudeau: Protests at hospitals are reprehensible, bombings to be judged on a case by case basis
TORONTO – Following a pro-Palestinian protest that partially took place outside Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto on Monday night, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau posted on Twitter/X to voice his condemnation at the idea of protests at or near hospitals, while making sure Canada’s international allies know that this condemnation does not necessarily apply to the bombing of hospitals.
“The demonstration at Mount Sinai Hospital yesterday was reprehensible. Hospitals are places for treatment and care, not protests and intimidation,” Trudeau posted.
“Unless the hospital has been designated a legitimate target by a country to which we provide millions of dollars worth of military equipment every year, in which case it’s probably fine to destroy it,” Trudeau continued. “Or not. Who am I to judge?”
The demonstration, a march between the U.S. and Israeli consulates protesting the ongoing genocide being perpetrated in Gaza by Canada’s long-standing ally Israel, passed by the hospital on its route. Several participants climbed onto Mount Sinai’s exterior and violently waved Palestinian flags, terrifying numerous people in the vicinity who are afraid of Palestine and/or flags.
It’s not yet known if any patients were unable to access the hospital during this brief action, but it is known that most of the hospitals in Gaza have been so damaged by Israeli bombings that they are no longer functioning.
“It is simply unacceptable to protest outside of Canadian hospitals,” Trudeau posted. “If a Canadian wants to disrupt healthcare, they can do it the right way: moving to Israel, joining the IDF, becoming a sniper, and waiting outside the few healthcare facilities in Gaza that are still operational to kill any human being in the area who moves.”
At press time, Trudeau was making sure that the Israeli government itself was not involved in any way with the protest march, in which case it may have been justified and would require years of investigation to determine whether or not condemnation is warranted.
