A new exhibit titled “Palestine Uprooted: Nakba Past and Present” is set to open in June 2026 at the Canadian Museum for Human Rights, focusing on Palestinian experiences during the 1948 Arab-Israeli war. Jewish groups, including the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs, have expressed concerns that the exhibit may present a one-sided narrative, omitting Jewish refugee experiences and potentially fueling antisemitism. The Jewish Heritage Centre of Western Canada plans to suspend its partnership with the museum due to worries about the exhibit’s implications for Jewish history and minority rights in Israel. Critics argue that the museum risks failing its mandate of inclusivity and balanced representation.
