The Jewish-supremacist ideology motivating genocide has widespread support among Canada’s elites.

Maybe I'm just not intrenched enough to hear the consensus pushback that I'm sure exists on the tabernacle level; and I do refrain from demanding an answer from Jewish people cuz I think that's wrong. But its a 50/50 for who is willing to denounce zionism and who seems to have bought into the propaganda.

I think, unfortunately, that in Canada the ratio is more 70/30 with majority supporting Zionism, while the US is closer to 50/50.

Historically and preceding WW2, Jewish immigrants preferred going to the US - Canada had a nasty habit of turning Jews away (even during and after the holocaust). The existinf US Jewish population managed to grow and create a culture that was very separate from what Zionism started to build in the late 19th/early 20th century in Europe.

Because Canada's Jewish population grew up with Zionist ideology being relevant to a great degree, the ratio is more skewed.

Like the other user said, anti-zionist Jewish voices in Canada are lacking in institutions and numbers especially in comparison to the US. They exist and need to be supported as well.
