There is nothing so glamorous about Saghafi that he’d attract the attention of Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly, and the cause of workers’ rights in Iran isn’t fashionable enough for Trudeau to acknowledge by, say, “taking a knee.” Saghafi is a car mechanic and an old-style “proletarian autodidact,” as self-educated working-class intellectuals used to be called.
Of course, there isn’t much Canada can do about any of this. No reasonably attentive observer of Ottawa politics would expect the Prime Minister’s Office to even dash something off for Twitter about someone as grubby as Alireza Saghafi. He’s nothing like the dapper Wang Yi, China’s foreign affairs minister, with whom Joly had a most pleasant conversation only last month.
Perhaps Ottawa’s indifference is because with Iran, as with China, “this issue is now over and we’re moving on,” as Joly put it after her chat with Wang Yi.Article contentIt’s only outpourings of public revulsion that seem to move the Trudeau government to act in accordance with the “Canadian values” he likes to talk about.

Which 'values'? The 'values' of endorsing ● illegal American sanctions against Iran for its 'failure' to kowtow to the US's imperialist demands (including plundering Iran's oil to benefit BigOil) and/or ● Israel's illegal and despicable actions against the Palestinians?
How can you let a team to play in Canada that banned women from entering the same match in Iran, a team that only represent IRCG who gunned down PS752
Why Trudeau is acting like a player? He is accountable for IRCC/CBSA/RCMP/CSIS’s action.The head of IRI Soccer team H,Estili who’s coming to Canada is in relation to an individual who’s wanted by FBI.The wanted person’s involved in a terroristic plot to kidnap 3 people in Canada
esmaeilion YES IT IS!! We don’t want this game in Vancouver/Canada. As a tax payer, as a Iranian/Canadian it looks like we have no saying in this matter! CanadaSoccerEN is operating under very ignorant mindset. No to sport washing!
TerryGlavin politicalization of sport by some Canadian right wing politicians & media that are misleading Canadian by promoting political propaganda under false claim of Humanrights since none of the Iran national team been affiliated with the Government. zionist propaganda
Canadian values? Like mass graves of indigenous childrens?
giving tax dollars to dying media giants is also an assault on Canadian values. So maybe sit the next few games out
Isn't the whole point of international sport to refocus on our common humanity? The idea that these players should shoulder some sort of collective guilt for the actions of their military is gross, and about as anti western as it gets.
the word nauseating comes to mind. As does Melany Joly snuggling up to Chinese officials. Sickening.
