Guest speaker

As part of our Phone Zap + Speaker Series, come hear Yipeng Ge, a primary care physician and public health practitioner, speak about his visits to Palestine, and and the importance of ending Canadian complicity and active support/involvement in the ongoing genocide in Gaza - and how institutions like the Canadian Medical Association (CMA) are complicit as well!

Following Yipeng's talk we will take action together by calling our MPs to demand they support a full arms embargo on Israel!
