The president of Canadian Union for Public Employees (CUPE) Ontario, Fred Hahn, has apologized for comments he made on Oct. 8, one day after the Hamas attack on Israel that killed over 350 Israelis and injured more than 1,900 people in that country by late that Saturday.
“On October 7th, Hamas committed a horrific terrorist attack on civilians in Israel. On the day immediately following that, I tweeted about resistance. The timing was wrong. That was an error, and I apologize,” wrote Mr. Hahn in an open letter on Oct. 21.
