Business that are “involved in the procurement networks that produce and supply sophisticated technology supporting the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ (IRGC’s) weapons production and transfers”. In other words, businesses necessary for Iran to defend itself like any country.
Add to that from the quick facts at the bottom: “designating Iran as a foreign state supporter of terrorism under the State Immunity Act; the Government of Canada reconfirmed this designation in December 2025”…,are they designating the US or Israel too? Because both have a proven track record.
