🇨🇦 Canada imported the problem, then acts shocked by paperwork

Hundreds of Iranian PR applicants are now getting flagged over past IRGC ties after Ottawa finally branded the IRGC a terrorist organization in 2024, years after letting people enter first and vetting later, as reported. Farzin Jafari says his 2011 service was compulsory, administrative, and unavoidable under Iran’s regime. Fine. But this is what happens when a country runs immigration like a moral vanity project instead of a sovereign state with functioning screening.

The real scandal is not that officials are checking now. It is that Trudeau-era Canada opened pathways, handed out temporary status, and only afterward remembered that hostile regimes use mass migration, weak borders, and liberal sentimentality to blur every line. Genuine dissidents exist. So do opportunists, regime-adjacent arrivals, and bureaucrats too cowardly to distinguish them before entry. A serious country vets first, admits second, and stops confusing compassion with national self-harm. Canada is still cleaning up the mess created by leaders who wanted applause, not control.
