Families of Flight PS752 victims continue to seek justice as 3rd anniversary nears

Esmaeilion said he’s frustrated by bureaucrats who suggest that sanctions are less a way to punish specific individuals and more a way to nudge regimes into behaving better. He argued Iran will not improve the way it treats people unless it faces clear pushback, and noted that the regime has been responsible for killing Canadians in other cases.

Immigration lawyers have said that some Iranian-born Canadians already face difficulty boarding aircraft and entering the United States due to past IRGC membership. Kaveh Shahrooz, a senior fellow with the Macdonald-Laurier Institute, said Ottawa seems to be dragging its feet. “There has been no criminal investigation by the RCMP,” Shahrooz said. “There’s no reason these things can’t move on parallel tracks.”On Friday, Trudeau met with family members of Flight PS752 victims, alongside Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly, Transport Minister Omar Alghabra and Canada’s High Commissioner in the United Kingdom, Ralph Goodale, who helped co-ordinate the government’s response.

The MPs are committing to raising the cases of specific dissidents incarcerated in Iran to pressure Tehran not to execute them and, as one letter signed by MPs puts it, “remind the Iranian regime that we are watching, that the world is watching.”
