Mark Carney Liberal
“Senior officials from Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps cannot enter Canada. Our government has taken back control of immigration. We cut the number of asylum seekers by one-third, temporary foreign workers by half, and international students by two-thirds to a level Canada can support.”
“Mr. Speaker, senior officials of the IRGC are not admissible in Canada, full stop. There are several layers of protection, and they work. That is the first point. The second is this: What has the government done? We have taken back control of immigration. We have reduced the number of asylum seekers by one-third, temporary foreign workers by half and foreign students by two-thirds. We have gotten the flow of immigration back to a level of welcoming that the country can sustain.”
