Roger, it warns that these grades are only going to get worse. Okay, ctv's renee rodgers, thank you for that. You're welcome. >> We're also getting a better

sense of how canadians feel about the state of grocery prices in canada. The majority believe costs at stores are still climbing. A new leger poll found 29% blame the rising costs on grocery chains who they believe are attempting to increase their profit margins. Senior director of the agri-food analytics lab at dalhousie university. Sylvain charlebois says he's not surprised. >> People have less money to spend on food and they feel they feel desperate. And so they're looking to blame something, someone and seeing ad to the one component, the supply chain that most people understand is the grocery store, but food inflation is much more complicated than that. But I'm not surprised to see the anger. The collective anger from some people out there. >> The federal government has introduced a voluntary code of conduct for major grocers to promote fairness and transparency in the industry. Canada's biggest grocer loblaw has signed on industry minister francois-philippe champagne says is hopeful others will follow suit. >> Seeing that food price inflation is going down. Why we have a recent years with respect to loblaw signing on it's a step in the right we have been in talks with walmart and costco. And I'm hopeful that he will sign that's, you know, if you talk grocers of kind of one of the key step to stabilize prices in canada. So we're going to keep about what we're going to keep on working with that. But I'm hopeful that everyone in the >> Now the frustration over high grocery prices prompted a boycott of loblaw own stores this month. And now organizers say the protest will go beyond may 31st. According to the organizers, people supporting the bike boycott want to keep it going. I really says the boycotters find a focus on advocacy efforts in the months ahead. Emily johnson, one of the key organizers says the boycott, he's been a uniting moment for community members. >> Ideally, what we wanted to do was just raise awareness of the drastically increasing cost of groceries means, you know, the fact that we do have control and power as consumers we never imagined in a million years that we had today. You know, 80,000 members on our subreddit own and and that there are 20,000 members between kochan are instagram. It's its and we're just incredibly surprised by the viral atf. >> Norway, spain and ireland have announced their intention to formally recognize a palestinian state, a declaration that would take effect on tuesday. >> I've spoken with a number of of the heaters and counterparts. I'm confident that for other countries will join us and taking this important step in the coming weeks. >> Leaders of the 3 countries say they hope the move brings new momentum toward a two-state solution, adding it's not a decision against israel or in favour of hamas bite. Instead, one in support of peace. And here at home, it's a move. Ndp leader jagmeet singh says he'd like to see canada take as well. He absolutely believed that we need to recognize palestine as a state to move forward with a two-state solution to move ultimately for for a peaceful solution. We maintain our position. We have a private member's motion on this, a prime member's bill on this by heather macpherson. What are my foreign affairs critic? This is the new democrat position, but most importantly. Canada should take this position. Justin trudeau should take this position. Other countries have already made it clear that that is one of the ways forward to bringing the two-state solution back to the forefront. And we believe it is a fundamental step towards peace. We're not israel, not happy with this move by ireland, norway and spain calling the decision distorted. Israel has recalled its ambassadors to the country's and some of their countries on boards. A warning some viewers might find the image in this next story. Disturbing the families of israeli soldiers taken hostage by hamas have released graphic new footage of their kidnapping on october 7th. This image from a video shows a hamas militant holding one woman captive in tying up her hands. Well, another visibly injured woman is held against the wall. The hostages families says they obtained the video from the idf and that it was originally released by hamas. The campaign continues to put pressure on the israeli government to secure the release of the hostages. Joining me now to discuss more on this is colin robertson, former diplomat and fellow at the canadian global affairs. Institue collin. Thank you for joining us. Good to be with you. Rodger. Your thoughts on norway, ireland and spain saying they want the palestinian state to be recognized. >> Well, I think it's an indication of which way the

winds are blowing in long. A new chapter in the palestine israel calm 6 innings. I don't think we're going to sign up right away. But as we saw following the vote at the U.N. a couple weeks ago, when you had 143 countries. Vo 2 recognize palestine as a state within the general assembly. The winds are clearly blowing in that direction. And in we have adjusted our position. The prime minister said after then taking the vote for we have stained rather than voted against that. We didn't preclude at some point recognition of palestine before negotiations towards that goal to state. Solution have been worked out, which has been our position really since 1948. Keep in mind that this whole idea of a two-state solution goes back to 1947, 1948 and they michelle creation of israel. Fact canadian set a hand in that order. Greatest diplomat lester pearson was one of the architects of that original set of negotiations. How does canada negotiate through this? Well, I think we weekly says you just saw what egmont saying it's, it's a lively issue in the house of commons. There is a that debate and a vote, a couple of it's a month ago. Now on the whole idea of the government shifted his position somewhat there. There are discussions going on the daily at the united nations of which were part of so we will continue to watch the next big event, I think is probably going to be the g7 meeting next month in italy, g7 countries have not moved to wear. As you put it, the stain and ireland and norway could help perfect when you mentioned ireland, nor remember these for the 2 countries that big canada out for a seat on the security council lasted for the security council seat. >> Where with that? If we do lean towards what north norway, ireland and spain have just done where would that leave us with the u.s.? >> The U.S. is probably going to be the last, but even. His has indicated his deep frustration with prime minister netanyahu, something prime minister trudeau is also expressed. It's having effectively closed the door to negotiations, leading to us to see to state. A solution that that's where I think. We want to see. Things said certainly it was in the west. Now, but the current government in israel doesn't release to provide that you're seeing divisions in israel as well. Criticism by members of the coalition government that there doesn't appear to be any viable path towards negotiations, which is with increasing people see, here's what we're going to have to do if we're going to find a solution to this. Problem, which trade in tragedy, which daily takes new lives. Will this change anything in israel and in gaza? >> I think that. Israelis who are watching what's going on sense that the winds are blowing in a certain direction as well. >> But as we've seen and as you to trade. And then the he sure showed there's what happened on october. The 7th is forever seared in his early memory and they do not want to negotiate with a mask. They do want them eliminated for what the crimes were committed on that day. >> Ok colleen, thank you very much for your insight. Thanks, roger. Colin robertson, former diplomat and fellow at the canadian global affairs institute. Toronto police have drop some of the charges against protesters for alleged hate-motivated mischief. Ctv's rahim ladhani has more. >> I didn't lose all employment because of these allegations that were false and proven to be so after accusing and charging 11 people for participating in alleged hate-motivated mischief. Police have now dropped the charges against 4 individuals who say they were unfairly targeted for supporting palestine. You're laying trumped-up charges that allow police to bust into our homes to drag us our reputation through the mud. >> And 2 brand us as a criminals and we have not been charged with any crimes on november 10, 2 officers were called to the yorkville area at bay and bloor. >> Posters were glued to the doors and windows of an indigo bookstore and red paint had been splattered. The 11 accused had all been charged with multiple offences, including mischief over $5,000. Allegations of of postering in paint don't even meet the standard set out by the court of appeal for mischief. There is an important case called jeffers that encourage people to read it discusses the importance of how how posters in our communities. >> Are used for free expression expression by people. In response, the crown attorney's office says this decision should not be seen as a criticism of the police determination that there were reasonable grounds for the arrests of these 4 individuals. However, the standard for proceeding with a prosecution is properly higher and more rigorous. The indigo bookstore has been the subject of boycott

campaigns for years over its founders has stick foundation for loans. Soldiers advocates say calling out the company is a form of activism against a foundation which offers scholarships to people without family in israel, who nevertheless served in the israeli military has to, as we say, calling out companies that support israeli war crimes is a legitimate form of protest targeting indigo is not antisemitic. >> Lawyers for the 7 people who are still being prosecuted are calling for all charges to be dropped with the man. A horrific scene in montreal. 3 people, including a 15 year-old boy are dead after they were stabbed during a fight. With so looking for. >> All in all the cool that we're here, we have in the fight to know exactly what's happening yesterday with still looking videos.
