While anger over a controversial judicial reform of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government grows in Israel, demonstrators blockaded Haifa Port. A group of navy veterans sailed into Haifa’s port in boats and blocked the entrance of merchant ships, proclaiming, “Sailors refusing to sail toward dictatorship.”

A road leading up to the Supreme Court has also been painted red and pink. Authorities arrested five demonstrators suspected of painting Jerusalem’s main roads while disguised as municipal workers and wearing masks.

“We will not accept violence against the police, blocking roads or breaking the law. The right to demonstrate is not the right to anarchy,” Netanyahu remarked in a statement.

Mark Carney, who has become Canada’s new prime minister after Justin Trudeau’s resignation, addressed US President Donald Trump’s proposal to make Canada the 51st state of the United States after taking the oath of office.

Touching upon the major differences between the two countries, Carney said, “We will never and in no way be part of the United States.” He also described US Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s statement that it would be economically better for Canada to be a state of the US as “crazy.”

In response to journalists’ question on whether he would travel to the United States to meet with Trump, Carney said, “I do not plan to travel to the United States. I look forward to speaking with President Trump at the appropriate time.”
