Foreign conflicts are being imported into Canada through weaknesses in the immigration system, members of Saskatchewan’s Iranian community told Rebel News amid escalating violence in the Middle East.
Iranians living in Saskatchewan described a 47-year “alien overlay” of Islamist policies imposed by the Islamic Republic on Persia’s ancient culture. They noted Iran’s strategic control of the Strait of Hormuz (just 33 miles wide at its narrowest) which serves as the primary exit for Gulf oil and has shaped regional power struggles for 5,000 years. Persians, they stressed, remain culturally distinct from their Arab neighbours.
Inside Iran, the regime has responded to protests with a near-total internet blackout. Owning a Starlink can result in the death penalty, while reports indicate up to 40,000 citizens have been killed by the Islamic Republic. Interviewees said the only restraint on further massacres is ongoing U.S. and Israeli action.
“The easiest ways to come to Canada is through the academic system,” one community member explained. They alleged regime-linked individuals are using universities, welcome centres and media to exert influence, even as genuine refugees flee execution.
