The survey is pretty clear, so there’s no need for “truer” as any sort of definition. There’s what is true, and what isn’t.

"Net Positive" is a defined term. It means more positive views than negative ones, which this poll supports.
Most poll questions have something like 20 to 30% in the no answer/don't know/neutral category so I agree there is likely a signal of both sides being wrong.
One of the challenges I see in this poll is that Canadians are pretty divided on whether either side (Israeli Jews/Palestinians) deserves their own state/self determination in that region of the world. Both carry a slim majority with large neutral/don't know cohort and a not insignificant number of noes to both questions.
I know personally I am getting pretty extreme against the groups cheering on "Death to..." (anyone) and baying for Israeli blood in Canadian Jewish neighborhoods as that cohort seems to be getting worse every weekend. I don't see this ending well here.
