Canada will abide by all rulings arising from South Africa’s genocide case against Israel at the International Court of Justice (ICJ), officials at Global Affairs Canada have told CBC News. The clarification comes after days of confusion over statements issued Friday by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Foreign Minister Mélanie Joly in response to South Africa's claim.

Marceau said he doesn’t understand why the federal government took so long to state its position, and why it issued it on a Friday afternoon, when it knew the ICJ hearing was coming well in advance.

Because you release news on Friday if you want people to forget about it on Monday.
