Understandable. They do support Canada, but politics are usually a subtle game, and since the orangutan has less tact than caveman they do better avoiding to upset him with open and confrontational support.
Not like he’s prone to notice such subtleties without someone pointing them out to him on a full powerpoint presentation anyway.
That’s what happens when you give a toddler access to the nukes. Being tactful is a must, until unavoidable.

Yeah, I’m not entirely sure what’s so surprising about a bunch of professional diplomats being diplomatic with their statements. It’s not a group I expect a lot of outright, direct statements of their positions from.
Yeah… Agreed. One bad and aggressive statement often takes a whole lot of diplomacy to reconcile. And we should know, just look at Trump crashing the US soft power built over decades in a matter of weeks.

Except for Germany, which did come out with explicit support.
And the UK, which King Charles has made plenty clear they have Canada's back.
And France, which has a nuclear attack sub currently parked in Halifax.
And of the top of my head, South Korea, Japan, Philippines have all moved to distance from the US and embrace Canada.
Yup, Canada is completely alone. Fuck you, US propaganda.

American propaganda, all nonsense.
