SELLEST OSAST
Carney’s support of the US and Israel’s attack on Iran raises questions around Canada’s “principled pragmatism” approach to foreign policy. Is it consistent with what he said at Davos?
Plus, the Iranian-Canadian response to the killing of Ali Khamenei isn’t as mixed as the headlines suggest.
Correction: in a previous version of this episode, a statement was erroneously attributed to Quebec’s Minister of Education, Sonia Lebel. It was made by Parti Quebecois MNA Pascal Paradis.
