Yesterday, Justin Trudeau, the liberal Prime Minister of Canada handed Iranians a very pleasant surprise.

News:

“It was a remarkable scene to watch unfold. On Tuesday afternoon, Canada’s Liberal cabinet rose to vote on a Conservative motion calling on the government to get tough on Iran.

What had previously been characterized as a policy of appeasement now appears to be one rooted in toughness and holding the regime to account for their conduct.

The other big action item in the motion is to add the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps to Canada’s list of designated terrorist entities. The IRGC effectively manages the whole economy in Iran.”

It is an open secret; Canada has become the most desired destination of Islamist fascists’ embezzlers who rob millions of Iranians and then live fabulously in Canada.

It is also beyond a shadow of a doubt that, Canada is an important hob for the Islamist fascists’ money laundering operations (snow washing), propaganda and a vital link in the procurement chain for the banned items the unreformable, expansionist and warmongering Islamist fascists need to carryon their nefarious policies.

Above is part of a serious of posted blogs in appreciation of Canada’s principled stand toward the victims of the unreformable, warmongering and expansionist Islamist fascist rule over Iran who are designated as the world’s number one state-sponsors of international terrorism.

And now this from a stupid Canadian ex-official:

“The real reason the Liberal government hasn't been able to re-establish relations with Iran is due to its adherence to a "stupid" Canadian law allowing the seizure of Iranian assets, says Canada's recently expelled ambassador to Saudi Arabia.

Dennis Horak, who was expelled from Saudi Arabia in August after its rulers were incensed by a tweet from Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland, offered that blunt assessment as he shed new light on another controversial moment in Canada's Middle East relations.

Horak has already criticized Freeland for her August tweet calling for the release of imprisoned activists in Saudi Arabia, which led the Saudi regime to declare Horak persona non grata, recall Saudi university students from Canada, and cancel flights between the countries. Horak said the tweet was "ill advised," but Saudi Arabia overreacted in response.

Six years ago, the previous Conservative government abruptly severed its diplomatic relations with Iran, shut its embassy in Tehran and expelled Iranian diplomats from Canada.

Horak, who was the Canadian foreign ministry's director of Middle East relations in 2012, said the three major federal parties supported the law.

"Lost in all of the information about the reasons why, was the real reason ... It was the Justice for Victims of Terrorism Act, frankly. That's the reason; that still exists," Horak said.”

In other words; according to this amoral, Canadian ex-official, standing with the victims of terrorism is “stupid” but the ugliness of cozying up with the terrorists and tyrants is the right thing to do.

Airtight sanctions, a la against the despicable South Africa apartheid, works. U.S. lawmakers get to it.
