A coalition of lawyers, civil‑society representatives and the Competition Bureau filed a competition‑law complaint on Oct. 24, 2026 in Toronto and Montreal. The filing alleges that four Israeli real‑estate companies and a Canadian marketing agency misled Canadian consumers by promoting parcels of land in the occupied West Bank as legitimate sales.
The complainants contend that the properties were advertised under false pretenses and may be illegal to sell. The action follows a series of promotional events by Israeli real‑estate agencies in Canadian cities aimed at marketing West Bank land, raising consumer‑protection concerns.
