Canadian Palestinian Association of Manitoba - CPAM

Canadian Palestinian Association of Manitoba - CPAM Manitoba-based Palestinian community cultural group. We are committed to the civic and social empowerment of Canadians of Palestinian descent in Manitoba.

A group of dedicated volunteers felt that Palestinian Manitobans need to have a mechanism to get together, to share experiences and insights, celebrate our culture, and serve as a forum where we can debate and decide on issues that affect us as a cultural minority. CPAM will serve as an effective advocate for the members of its community. CPAM promotes intellectual freedom and human rights. We emb

race the ideals of equality, equity, freedom, respect for individuals and groups as principles that are fundamental to the success and growth of our province and country. We are intrinsic to the multi-cultural fabric of Canada. Much has been achieved in Canada to achieve racial and ethnic understanding but the road is long and full of challenges. Our aim is to contribute to bridging the divide between cultures. We intend to contribute to the improvement of mutual understanding, interest and fraternity between Palestinian and Canadian people.

CJPME joins more than 70 human rights, labour, faith, legal, Jewish, Muslim, Palestinian and civil society organizations in launching a national statement in support of the Canadian Museum for Human Rights and its curatorial independence. The statement responds to organized political and public pressure surrounding Palestine Uprooted: Nakba Past and Present.

People have every right to debate or criticize an exhibition. But politicians and pressure groups should not determine which histories Canadians are permitted to encounter or seek institutional consequences for museums and their leadership.

The principles at stake extend beyond this exhibition. Public museums must be able to present difficult and contested histories through independent, evidence-based scholarship and curation.

The statement remains open, and we invite other organizations and individuals across Canada to add their names.

PART 2: The Bloody Reality Behind the Myth of "A Land Without a People."

When Zionist groups look at the Canadian Museum for Human Rights and claim the Palestine Uprooted exhibit "only tells one side," it’s because they cannot handle the second part of the story. They are desperate to hide how their ethno-state was actually built: through systemic Zionist terror, calculated Zionist massacres, and the forced displacement of the indigenous population. The blame for the bloodshed lies squarely on the shoulders of the Zionist movement and its fanatical leadership.
By the 1930s and 40s, Zionist militias, fueled by an ideology of supremacy and armed by British colonial forces, turned their weapons directly against Palestinian civilians. The goal was simple, premeditated, and cruel: maximum land with minimum Palestinians. What followed was an intentional campaign of atrocities designed by Zionist commanders to strike absolute terror into the hearts of families, forcing them to flee their ancestral homes.

History remembers the horrors the Zionists want forgotten:

The Balad Al-Shaykh Massacre (December 1947):

Zionist Haganah forces launched a cowardly night raid on a sleeping village near Haifa, firing indiscriminately into homes and blowing up houses, leaving dozens of Palestinian civilians dead, including women and children.

The Sa'sa' Massacre (February 1948):

Zionist Palmach units entered the village in the dead of night, planted explosives against inhabited homes and detonated them without warning, murdering over 60 villagers inside their own walls.

The Deir Yassin Massacre (April 9, 1948):

In one of the most savage atrocities of the Nakba, Zionist Irgun and Stern Gang militias stormed a peaceful village that had actively signed a non-aggression pact. Led by future Israeli prime ministers, Zionist forces slaughtered over 100 men, women, and children. In cold blood, they used hand grenades to blow up families inside their stone homes, lined villagers up against walls to execute them with submachine guns, and committed documented acts of mutilation. The Zionist attackers then stripped and paraded the terrified survivors through the streets of West Jerusalem in open trucks as a psychological weapon to broadcast what would happen to any Palestinian who stayed.

These were not isolated incidents or accidents of war. They were deliberate, tactical executions of "Plan Dalet", the official Zionist military blueprint for the systematic ethnic cleansing of Palestine. Zionist forces completely depopulated, destroyed, or physically wiped over 500 villages off the map to pave the way for their settler-colonial state.

Instead of standing up for human rights and historical accuracy, political leaders are folding under pressure. Minister Marc Miller publicly admitted that it wasn't his place to insert himself into the curation of the museum, yet he bowed to Zionist pushback anyway, politicizing the exhibit, calling it a "failure," and demanding that the museum "rectify" the language. This cowardice is a direct attempt to police Palestinian narratives and suppress the unvarnished history of the Nakba.
But let it be known: Palestinians are not just victims waiting to be saved, and we will never let our history be erased. We are a people of unbroken sumud (steadfastness) and unmatched strength. Over a century of Zionist violence, military occupation, and forced displacement has failed to break the Palestinian spirit. Generation after generation, the keys to our stolen homes are passed down, the truth is shouted louder, and the resistance grows stronger. You can try to censor a museum exhibit, but you cannot censor a people's collective memory or their unyielding right to exist on their own land.
We are still here, we are holding the line, and we will never stop fighting for liberation.
