The genocide convention underlies the icj and UN approaches etc, all of which Canada is following. (Yes, the UN is flawed but that’s the unfortunate reality of international law.)
Go educate yourself . The convention also oblige countries to not be complicit with countries who do not respect it and abuse human rights. Canada is still selling and buying military equipment’s from/to Israel and did not impose a single sanction of the state of Israel
The High Contracting Parties undertake to respect and to ensure respect for the present Convention in all circumstances
Article 1 of the Geneva Conventions is generally interpreted as conferring a responsibility on third party states not involved in an armed conflict to not encourage a party to an armed conflict to violate international humanitarian law, nor to take action that would assist in such violations, and to take appropriate steps to cause such violations to cease.
Also there hundred of canadians serving in the idf despite canadian law prohibiting serving a foreign state army especially one with serious human right abuses
Canada, like many others has stopped selling arms.
The Geneva conventions do not obligate countries to march in to prevent abuses, nor have serious legal experts said that normal trade with Israel is illegal.
I would like you to address the issue of Canadian serving under the IDF when Canadian law is prohibiting it. Why Carney or any other prime is not applying it’s own?
It is really frustrating for me to see people still defending the government blindly like that
It’s much more complicated than you make it out to be, in part because unlike sanctioned countries like North Korea etc Israel is in other senses a regular trade partner.

Under a hundred, presumably mostly all dual citizens in another sovereign nation hardly constitutes Canadian government policy.
Yes, I’d like the government to do more.
But, that is different from the government not following international law.

The genocide convention underlies the icj and UN approaches etc, all of which Canada is following. (Yes, the UN is flawed but that’s the unfortunate reality of international law.)
Canada is following the geneva convention obligations?
Are you sure you mean the Geneva convention?
That’s about how countries conduct war and outlines the rights of civilians, soldiers etc.
I’m not sure how you get to Canada violating that?
