Not everyone who supports a boycott on Israel is an anti-Semite, but everyone who is anti-semetic supports a boycott on Israel. Israel's complicated situation is often used as a platform to promote hate by anti-Semites, and it isn't always easy to separate those intetions.
I agree that making a law against being against Israeli policy is ridiculous though. Even in Israel, there are fairly powerful opposition groups that dissent against certain policy issues, and it is perfectly legal there to do so. Making it illegal in Canada would be bizarre.
