“Canada’s much bigger role right now is providing diplomatic cover for Israel.”

QUOTE: "In the most recent example of many similar votes, the Canadian UN delegation abstained from a Jordanian-sponsored General Assembly resolution that condemned “all attacks of violence against Palestinian and Israeli citizens, including all acts of terror and indiscriminate attacks,” but stopped short of calling for a ceasefire.
Instead, it called for a “humanitarian pause,” which Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has supported. But Canada didn’t support the resolution after UN Ambassador Bob Rae’s U.S.-backed proposal that the resolution explicitly condemn Hamas, but not Israel, didn’t receive the required two-thirds majority to pass.
“They’re doing their diplomatic role that the U.S. likes the Canadians to play when the U.S. is trying to cover up a genocide,” Ayyash said."
