Citing an alleged attack against Dishon Limited in Concord, Ontario, the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs is again calling for the federal government to list Palestine Action Canada (PAC) as a terrorist organization.
“At a time when Canada has rightly identified its defence industry as essential to our national and economic security, terrorists are ‘taking matters into their own hands’ to harm businesses and the Canadians they employ,” said the CIJA in a Monday post on X.

The CIJA points to a Sunday Instagram post by PAC that confesses to targeting Dishon, early on Sunday.
Dishon describes itself as a world class supplier of complex precision machine components and assemblies for North America, Europe and Asia. Among the industries that the company serves is commercial and military aviation.
National Post has reached out to Dishon and York Region Police for confirmation and comment but has not yet received any responses.
“We refuse to accept continued canadian complicity in israel’s genocide and ethnic cleansing campaigns of Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon and extended war throughout the region,” writes PAC in the post. It contends that Dishon sent a bushing welding machine, industrial equipment for the manufacturing weapons parts, to Elbit Systems Ltd. , an Israeli-based military tech company and defence contractor.
PAC wrote that this machinery “contributes to the production + maintenance of the armored vehicles deployed by the (IDF) in ground assaults, like IMI Systems’ CombatGuard and the gun systems for lethal Merkava tanks. This is all enabled by our government, despite an alleged ‘arms embargo’.”
The PAC post continues that the organization is “taking matters into our own hands. We are done appealing to the ruling class. israel’s impunity has not only devastated Palestine and surrounding nations, but poses an existential threat to the world, and we must make canada’s involvement come to a grinding halt.”
Meanwhile, the CIJA says the federal government “cannot afford to stand idle. The UK has already designated Palestine Action as a banned terrorist organization.”
Palestine Action is originally a British organization, according to U.K. newspaper, The Independent . It was deemed a terrorist group under the U.K. Terrorism Act 2000 . One of its network’s primary targets is Elbit Systems .
In May, the CIJA says, it called proactively for the listing of Palestine Action as a terrorist entity in Canada “because we shouldn’t wait for groups to target our national security and critical infrastructure … It’s beyond time for the Canadian government to follow the lead of our allies and proceed with their listing.”
