Ever since the last federal election in 2015, the Liberal government of Justin Trudeau has been working to restore diplomatic relations with Iran.

Like the former Obama administration in the United States, our federal government has worked actively for the elimination of trade sanctions by Western nations and a lifting of any freezes on Iranian government bank accounts around the world.

Talk about cutting our own throats.

The Iranian regime remains the world’s top funder of Islamic terror groups. By lifting sanctions and restoring bank accounts, the Trudeau government (like the Obama administration before it) would simply be giving the mad mullahs who run Tehran more money they could give to groups that want to wipe us and our allies off the face of the planet.

And what monies Tehran does not give to jihadis it could use to fund its nuclear program, which only a naïf like Trudeau would believe was for strictly peaceful purposes. Playing nice-nice with the Iranian regime is the very height of Western progressives’ politically correct thinking: To prove just how tolerant they are, they feel they most need to befriend those who mean us the most harm.
