But the fight is far from settled, and returns now to a government regulatory body for a decision on the appropriate label.
Two years ago, Federal Court Justice Anne Mactavish ruled that Canadians’ constitutional right to freedom of expression includes the right to accurate labelling, so that individuals can express their political views in their purchasing decisions, if they wish. She found the “Product of Israel” label false, misleading and deceptive, and said that while she was not deciding on the legal status of the settlements, all parties to the case had said the settlements were not part of Israel.
This week’s 3-0 Federal Court of Appeal ruling, written by Chief Justice Marc Noël, does not point to the politics of the Middle East. Instead, it relates to the complexities of administrative law – the review, by a court, of a matter initially decided by an administrative or regulatory body. Two lawyers representing Psagot Winery said they were pleased by the decision. “Psagot Winery proudly produces ‘Products of Israel’ and will remain at the forefront of defending Israeli products in Canada and around the world,” Aaron Rosenberg and David Elmaleh said in an e-mail.
