A poem about Canada

What Happened Canada?
What happened to make backpackers no longer proud to wear your Maple Leaf?
What happened to turn you from a nation of peacekeepers into bomb droppers?
What happened to make you call a violent lone man with mental illness, if Muslim, a terrorist?
What happened to make you vote with the minority of nations at the UN on Palestine?
What happened to make your PM call the slaughter of an occupied people “self-defense”?
What happened to make Israel name a park built on the ruins of Arab villages after your PM?

What happened to make you into a country I am no longer proud to be a citizen of?
