This is not an overnight development that just happened in the past two weeks, after the Trump administration and Israel launched attacks on
Iran.
Reports were emerging in January that even while Iranian citizens fed an uprising that led to the murder of roughly 40,000 of them at the hands
of the Iranian regime, members of the regime have been quietly
relocating to Canada.
A news site called Justice In Conflict reported in January that rCLin
2021, a Tehran police chief was spotted at a Toronto-area gym. In 2024,
it was reported that 700 Iranian nationals linked to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) resided in Canada rCo the same group that has been designated as a terrorist entity by the Canadian government.
That same year, five Iranian regime figures faced deportation back to Iran.rCY
Now, thanks to the X platform, we have almost real-time proof that the
IRGC rats are fleeing the ship.
Of course, it would be easy to make a lot of assumptions based on a
video that can very well be taken out of context. But then thererCOs this post from X that corroborates the initial X post that went viral.
We have a name of this Iranian official. ItrCOs Hojjatoleslam Morteza Tayyebi. So is this a one-off? Not according to CanadarCOs Melissa
Lantsman, a member of the Canadian Parliament.
Lantsman got into greater detail in an op-ed she penned for a Canadian
news site called Todayville, where she said that hundreds of IRGC agents
may be in Canada.
While she acknowledged that Mark Carney, CanadarCOs prime minister, called that number inaccurate, he wonrCOt confirm any number.
rCLThis week we learned from the MinisterrCOs own agency that at least 239 people linked to the Iranian regime are living here in Canada and have
had their visas revoked,rCY Lantsman wrote. rCLYet of the 239 whose visas have been revoked, only one single person has actually been deported.rCY
LantsmanrCOs numbers are based on news media reports, which she says
suggests that 700 IRGC agents may be in Canada.
When discussing the Canadian governmentrCOs seeming paralysis on the issue and the notion of deporting potential hostile residents from Iran,
Lantsman said rCLsenior bureaucrats blamed a lack of flights to Iran for
the governmentrCOs inaction, as if the regime was not already a listed sponsor of terrorism long before the current hostilities.rCY
She added that the government rCLwent on about protecting rCyprivacy,rCO and suggested that some of these individuals might even be able to claim
asylum. This is very much another self-own from CanadarCOs broken and
abused refugee system, which is supposed to protect those fleeing
violence, not protect those importing it.rCY
Carney has gone on record as saying he wonrCOt support the U.S. and Israel
in their attacks on Iran. In light of these reports of IRGC members
setting up shop in Canada, you have to wonder if CarneyrCOs motives were
tied to his desire for peace in the form of the status quo, or has he
taken a side in this conflict?
The last thing the U.S. needs is a shift in the Iranian center of global power and influence from Tehran to the country just north of us. If
Canada thinks Trump was tough on them before all of this, Carney & Co.
could find out just how resolved the Trump administration is to protect
the U.S. from the Iranian threat.
