The United Church of Canada, will be voting on four anti Jewish/Israel resolutions at its 40th General Council in Kelowna, British Columbia, August 9-15, 2009. The meetings will take place on the campus of the University of British Columbia-Okanaga.

The four resolutions call for a "comprehensive boycott of Israeli academic and cultural institutions at the national and international levels" and refer to the recent assault on Gaza as a "visible reminder of the ongoing Israeli regime of exclusion, violence and dehumanization directed against Palestinians."

They also said that Israel was "built mainly on land ethnically cleansed of its Palestinian owners," and make reference to the effectiveness of boycotts when dealing with state-sponsored racial discrimination and violence as was the case in South Africa.
