“The Prime Minister said the war in Iran was worth it. It killed thousands of people, destroyed schools and hospitals, cost billions of dollars, and did not make the world safer. I want him to admit this war was not worth it.”
“Mr. Speaker, this week, the Prime Minister claimed that Trump’s war in Iran was “worth it.” Thousands were killed, including schoolchildren. Schools and hospitals were destroyed. Families and entire communities were displaced. Billions of dollars were wasted, and higher energy costs made life more expensive for Canadians who are already struggling. The world is no safer today than it was before the war. The Prime Minister hastily supported the attacks that started this war. How much more suffering is needed before the Prime Minister realizes this war was not “worth it”?”
