Four locals of the Canadian Union of Public Employees say they're "outraged" at the union's call for a boycott of Israeli goods. The union members are holding an information picket today in front of the offices of CUPE's Ontario Division in Toronto.
However, the offices have been closed during the protest. On May 27, delegates to the CUPE Ontario convention voted unanimously to support an international campaign to boycott goods from the Jewish state.
It couldn't happen to a more deserving bunch. On the other hand, I stepped up my purchases of all wines from Israel and will be sampling wines from the Golan Heights this weekend.
