Liberals realize IRGC is a terrorist group now that it’s politically convenient
Trudeau acts because of politics, not people
Trudeau’s inaction could be down to sheer incompetence or smug complacency. Maybe a combination of both. But let’s not rule out political expediency.
Six years ago, Trudeau, Mélanie Joly, now foreign affairs minister, and Dominic LeBlanc, now minister for public safety, all voted for a motion to list the IRGC as terrorists.
Following that, the Liberals did nothing.
Four years ago, the IRGC shot down Ukraine International Airlines PS752, killing 176 people including 55 Canadians and 30 permanent residents. The families of the victims have been calling for the listing of the IRGC for years.
The IRGC killing a large number of Canadians still didn’t prompt Trudeau to act.
