Following the events in Iran, Alexandre Boulerice, NDP Foreign Affairs Critic, issued the following statement:
"The NDP strongly condemns the American and Israeli bombings of Iran. This is a dangerous escalation that risks dragging the entire region into a major conflict. The oppressive and bloody regime of the Ayatollahs is reprehensible, but its nuclear program must be managed through the United Nations and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). In fact, its Director General, Mr. Grossi, recently indicated that he was working with the Iranian administration to resume inspections and reiterated that there could be no solution other than a diplomatic one.
The NDP deplores the Carney government’s decision to blindly support this dangerous venture by Israel and Donald Trump’s administration. We want Canada to be a voice for diplomacy, peace, and international law."
He could have made a simple statement urging calm and restraint. No need to take sides.
Not with the isreal lobby pulling the world leaders strings. Could use Donald to attack Canada for not helping them, you’ve seen isreal lash out at those who don’t support them.
Nah that’s a silly antisemitic trope, refuted easily by the simple fact that Canada recognized Palestine a few months ago.
Hmm true, maybe they were making nukes then… I seriously doubt at this stage carney would want to work with the US on anything with Donald around,
