Rights Action condemns this abusive, politicized use of the Canadian criminal law system to punish and silence Yves Engler, all directly related to Israel's U.S., Canadian, and Western-backed, ethnic cleansing genocide in Palestine.

Rights Action encourages folks to read the message from Yves’ father below, and TAKE ACTION!

* Support Yves’ work, including costs associated with fighting these abusive criminal charges: [link removed] ([link removed])

This abusive application of criminal law against Yves Engler is potentially very harmful and costly to him. There should be sanctions for this “lawfare” – the abusive use of the criminal law system that is paid for through public funds.

Yves’ father here, providing an update about Yves who is currently detained at the Bordeaux jail, until at least Monday. Today, the prosecutors refused to free him unless he would agree not to speak publicly about the case, including naming directly or indirectly the influencer who filed the complaint against him.

Yves will have a bail hearing Monday 9am (Feb.24, 2025). He has called for supporters to attend. The hearing will determine whether or not Yves will be freed pending trial and if he will be allowed to write in detail about what is happening to him including naming the complaint and the police officer who have accused him of harassment.

He has no interest in naming the police officer but insists that he should be able to name the influencer who regularly publishes hateful anti Palestinian content online.

If you support Yves, please come to the Palais de justice at 1 Notre Dame East in room 3.12 on Monday morning at 9:00am.
