The President of the United States is openly threatening to commit genocide against 90 million people.
Prime Minister Carney: if there was ever a moment to denounce this illegal war, withdraw your support, and call for accountability for war crimes—it’s now.

Apparently he has. It feels pretty wishy-washy. I guess maintaining friendships with leaders who pursue genocide is more important to him than condemning war crimes?

"Canada expects all parties in this conflict, in any conflict, to respect international laws," Carney said during a news conference in Brampton, Ont., on Tuesday.
"That means not targeting civilians or civilian infrastructure. And we urge all parties in this war to follow those responsibilities."
Carney's comments came hours after Trump issued his latest threat to Iran, saying that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again."
```
"The first point that we were making was the desirability of the ending of both that state-sponsored terrorism and the nuclear ambitions of Iran," he said.
"That remains the case."

Prime Minister Mark Carney urged "all parties" in the United States and Israel's war with Iran to respect international law and not target civilian infrastructure, following repeated threats to do so by U.S. President Donald Trump.
