Petition is addressed to: Parliament of Canada
We ask the Government of Canada to:
- Direct CBSA/IRCC to apply enhanced admissibility screening to visitors connected to the “Global Sumud Flotilla,” including Greta Thunberg.
- Refuse entry where IRPA s.34’s “reasonable grounds to believe” standard is met, or impose proportionate conditions if concerns fall short of refusal.
- Publish a brief public rationale explaining how security assessments are balanced with Charter-protected expression/assembly.
Note: We are expressing a policy view. We do not allege criminal wrongdoing by any individual.
Reason
Facts, Law & Policy:
- Canada lists Hamas as a terrorist entity.
- IRPA s.34 permits refusal of entry on reasonable security grounds (a preventive, administrative standard distinct from criminal proof).
Context from open sources (reporting/analysis):
- Public materials about flotilla campaigns describe organizers and promoters who have engaged with or expressed support for groups aligned with Hamas/Muslim Brotherhood.
- High-profile participation can amplify such campaigns even when framed as humanitarian.
Our position:
To safeguard Canada’s security framework and social cohesion, any high-visibility participant - including Greta Thunberg - should undergo enhanced screening, with refusal if the IRPA threshold is met.
Sources (mix of official law pages + neutral reporting + research):
- Government of Canada, Listed Terrorist Entities (Hamas)
- Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, s.34
- Criminal Code (Participation in activity of terrorist group ss.83.18)
- Freedom Flotilla Coalition / campaign materials (for self-described aims & participants)
- Research dossier: “Global Sumud Flotilla: A Humanitarian Cover with Documented Links to Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood” (Sept 2025).
Note: This petition states a policy opinion and requests precautionary screening under existing Canadian law. It does not assert criminal facts about any individual and supports refusal of entry only where IRPA’s legal threshold is met.

This is a note from the openPetition editorial team:
This petition conflicts with section 1.4 of the Terms of Use for Permitted Petitions.
You are making extremely serious accusations against Greta Thunberg and justifying them with a single source published by the Israel National Digital Agency. The report does not provide any clear evidence of possible links between Ms Thunberg and Hamas or the Muslim Brotherhood. It often refers to alleged links.
The petition itself is legitimate. However, you must adjust the statements you have made. Make it clear that these are your own opinions and not facts.

I am sick and tired of Greta Thunberg and so is everyone else! She is a menace to peace loving Canadians and a tool for Jew haters. Keep her out!
