Canada is partially responsible. They were a contributor to the Holocaust. Reasons: Anti-semitism Immigration policies S. S. St. Louis

__

This is a huge stretch. While the Canadian government behaved reprehensibly and had definite anti-Semitic policies, in no way can Canada be held responsible for what happened in Nazi Germany. Canada's shame is it's unwillingness to accept refugees at the beginning of the nightmare. Our policies had no affect on Hitler. So no, Canada is not to be blamed for the death camps, concentration camps etc. The Nazi's were responsible for creating the situation that made the Holocaust occur.

What was the most important reson of why the holocaust happend?

The Jewish people were blamed for the death of Jesus and refusing to accept Him as Divine. The Jews were convenient scapegoats for hundreds of years; when ever anything bad happened, the Jews were blamed for the incident. The Jews were an obvious minority in most of the countries they lived in. The Great Depression took place in the 1930's and Germany needed a scapegoat for their problems. Also for their loss in World War 1 in 1918. Blaming the Jews was easy and lead to the path of the Final Solution--the murder of Six Million Jews.
