The Canada-Israel Committee sent telegrams to Prime Minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau and Foreign Secretary Allan McEachen demanding that the government stop or withdraw its permission for a delegation of the PLO to come to Toronto for a United Nations conference. The telegrams, signed by Rabbi W. Gunther Plaut acting chairman of the Committee, urged the government to prevent the PLO entry in the aftermath of Friday’s bombing in Jerusalem. The government is scheduled soon to announce whether the PLO group will be admitted to Canada.
