Iran’s nuclear programme is a grave threat to international security, and Canada has been consistently clear that Iran can never be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon.
While U.S. military action taken last night was designed to alleviate that threat, the situation in the Middle East remains highly volatile. Stability in the region is a priority.
Canada calls on parties to return immediately to the negotiating table and reach a diplomatic solution to end this crisis. As G7 leaders agreed in Kananaskis, the resolution of the Iranian crisis should lead to a broader de-escalation of hostilities in the Middle East, including a ceasefire in Gaza.

From a friend that has connections there, some Iranians welcomed the assaults because they want their current leader removed. And I’m sure USA would love to install a leader there again.
That’s what I’m hearing of too. I’ll honestly admit if Trump pulled this move and it leads to a regime change. Fuck I’ll give it to him as a ballsy move that worked. I would think at this point if it works, and I were to deny the victory I would be doing it just because I don’t like Trump and I think that’s something I don’t want to do just out of spite.
