Two Muslim led groups disagree on what is the best way to help out Gaza. The Free Gaza Movement plans to fundraise money and send Canada’s first aid flotilla to the war stricken zone of Gaza by this fall. It has held fundraisers in Toronto and Montreal and plans to intensify its fundraising for the month of Ramadan. It claims it has the support of many activist groups, church groups and Middle Eastern groups.
Though, one party, the Montreal Muslim Council, has come out in disapproval of the idea. It claims Israel has already eased some of its tight blockade and that sending a flotilla would just create more tension rather than providing relief. It recommends another form of aid be sent to the Palestinians.
