Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says Canada Border Services Agency will be the department that decides whether Iran's men's soccer team is allowed into the country for a game next month.

Canada is set to host Iran in a friendly match in Vancouver on June 5, but controversy about the game has swirled and Trudeau said last week that the event was ill advised.“I've expressed my concern that I think this game was a bad idea. I can assure you that Sport Canada has not delivered any funding for this game,” he said.

Conservative MP Melissa Lantsman released a letter on Thursday, saying the federal government is “making communities relive the grief and trauma” of the crash by inviting Iran to play in Vancouver. Both Lantsman and the Association of Families of Flight PS752 Victims have called for the game to be cancelled.

Put on your big boy pants there JT..deny them entry and do not pass the buck onto the CBSA

I hope they don't let them in, it will be a decision I would agree with our pm. 1st time ever I believe

these people should be kept AWAY and not near the north american land! the radical left is the problem why there are so much crime and terrorism on this great soil as they leave the borders open to them! keep these people off our land!

thry should be kept AWAY and not near the north american land! the radical left is the problem why there are so much crime and terrorism on this great soil as they leave the borders open to them! keep these people off our land!

Or (bear with me here), Canada can rescind the 400k grant compromised of our tax dollars that was given to CanadaSoccerEN to finance this revolting endeavour. I’d rather see that money in the pockets of the victims’ families than spent on this grotesque spectacle.

Gee I wonder what they ll decide since their boss is on the record with his opinion.

Maybe Trudeau will just pay them $10 million

What's the issue?

If he wants any respect at all, send the soccer players home until they pay for the plane they shot down, and revoke every Russian hockey players visa, until their is peace in the Ukraine, but Mr. Hairdo will do nothing except send billions of taxpayers dollars to the indigenous.

I'm sure he'll influence the cbsa.

God forbid the Prime Minister make a decision on his own

are we worried they're going to fly airplanes into the world trade centre? like wtf?

Freed U.K. woman says Iran forced her to sign false confessionA British-Iranian charity worker who was detained in Tehran for almost six years says she was forced by Iranian officials to sign a false confession to spying before she was freed two months ago. FOIAW are an issue with a political solution. How many politicians support requirement that followers of ideology at war (FOIAW) pass psych evaluation to have surrender accepted and must understand consequences of breach of surrender and treason to enter country? And every murderer in prison is innocent, right? And forced her too eat hot sausages

Trudeau dodges question about whether Canada is on stolen Indigenous land | Globalnews.caHe was asked the question on Monday, and replied that 'the story of Canada' is a story of people coming together to build a better present and future for generations to come. If you win, you need not have to explain...If you lose, you should not be there to explain! The way I look at it, a dirty war was fought for the land by our ancestors. Fortunately, the species has evolved since then. And, to be completely fair, I know that wars were being fought over this land before we invaded, too. What an inane question from a reporter. Every country is on stolen indigenous land. Sorry, that's it. Not changing and not giving it back.
