Canadian prime minister: I am a Zionist

'No one in Canada should be afraid of calling themselves Zionists. I am a Zionist,' Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told a national summit in Ottawa addressing what he called a rise of anti-Semitism. Joined by government officials, law enforcement and legal experts to tackle this escalating public safety concern in Canada, Trudeau misrepresented Zionism as meaning a belief 'in the right of Jewish people, like all people, to determine their own future.' The outgoing prime minister did not highlight that it is a racist ideology which has called for and led to the ethnic cleansing of Palestinian from their lands. A policy that continues to this day.
