Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer discuss Canada's official recognition of a Palestinian state, examining the timing and implications of Prime Minister Carney's announcement. They critique the government's decision, arguing it rewards terrorism after October 7th and undermines Israel at a critical moment. The discussion explores the practical challenges embedded in Canada's conditions for recognition, particularly the requirement of the Palestinian Authority governing a future Palestinian state, and questions whether this policy reflects serious diplomacy or merely symbolic politics disconnected from ground realities.
