Anti-Israel demonstrators gathered at the Montreal home of Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly on Jan. 13 over Canada’s stance on the Israel-Hamas war.

The protest outside Ms. Joly’s home came just one day after she issued a government statement saying that Ottawa’s “unwavering support for international law” does not mean it accepts “the premise of the case brought by South Africa,” which accuses Israel of genocide before the International Court of Justice (ICJ).
