It's better than nothing, but in this day and age $4 million feels like peanuts. Israel is probably spending $4 million a day bombing the shit out of them.

Didn't they pull funding from UNRWA after Israel did a massive smear campaign against it? UNRWA was literally the lifeline for Gaza.
The best way to encourage a 2 state solution is by sanctioning Israel for the genocide they're perpetrating and the apartheid they're enacting against Palestinians in Israel.
Not to mention that Israel's settlements plan is literally to subvert the chances of a 2 state solutions. So good luck with "educational lessons" to bridge the gap of distrust.
I can almost guarantee this will do literally nothing other than delay and punish Palestinians in their goal towards national liberation
Oh boy, a whole 4 million. Hey didn't Canada dump more than 20 billion into oil and gas last year?
Oops, I think you might have gotten lost somewhere along the way…
In that case, the answer is simply that what you're suggesting is slightly more expensive. It's the same answer across the board for every single environmental or climate problem we have had in the last century. The solution is slightly, like a fraction of a percentage point, more expensive, and so they won't do it.
I like your suggestion for Israel though. It should be turned into a closed loop system , and the waste should be filtered off through boiling.
How's about, we stop sending weapons to Israel, so they can stop committing actual genocide? Then the leaders can get the Nuremberg treatment. And then it can be a one state, back to Palestine.
I look forward to see if this goes anywhere and it's not just a PR song-and-dance replacing taking real action to stop the ongoing slaughter. At this point it sounds vapid.
Is this the same Labour Party who banned Palestine Action?
Colour me "press X to doubt".
Leave Labor/Labour, people, for parties who actually share your values. Ffs.
What an absolute farce.
How many decades do we have to burn on this lie of a two-state solution before we admit that it's always been a way for Israel to continue squeezing Palestinians off their lands?
There should be one secular state, free of apartheid.
