Disappointed, sure, but I don’t think you should be surprised.
Canada was founded as a country specifically for the purpose of genocide. Virtually the entire country is on settled and stolen land. It would be hypocritical to be against someone else doing the same.
You’re right, but there’s a reason why Canadians don’t talk about their “founding fathers” the way Americans do.
I don’t know how many other countries are the same way.
The first PM was explicitly racist against indigenous people, and IIRC, the country was explicitly founded on the basis of white supremacy over indigenous peoples.

You could say the same about Australia and various Latin America countries, yet they still condemn Israel action.

That’s true for a lot of places, it’s just that Canadians recognize that.

Canada was founded more than 150 years ago. I’m surprised that in that intervening period, nothing has changed.
