The Embassy of the Canada to Israel in Tel Aviv is the diplomatic mission of the Canadian government to Israel. It was opened in 1953, few years following Israel's establishment.
In the 1970s, Joe Clark's government promised to move the embassy to Jerusalem, but did not follow through due to fears of economic backlash from Arab states.[2]
