Poll suggests half of Canadians believe Israel is committing genocide in Gaza

A June survey of 1,511 Canadians revealed that 49% agree Israel is carrying out acts amounting to genocide in Gaza nearly two years after the conflict began.
This rising perception follows ongoing Israeli military actions, including intensified blockades and bombing campaigns that caused widespread Palestinian suffering.
Concurrently, a group of five countries sanctioned Israeli ministers accused of inciting violence, and academics urged policymakers to enforce legal and moral obligations to prevent genocide.
The poll also showed 41% of Canadians doubted lasting peace between Israelis and Palestinians, and 38% of Americans agreed Israel commits genocide, highlighting deep regional division.
These developments suggest growing international pressure on Israel and its allies to address humanitarian concerns and seek conflict de-escalation amid fears of wider regional instability.
