Canada has designated Iran as a regime that has engaged in “terrorism,” as well as the systematic and gross violation of human rights, Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino announced on Monday.

The move, he said, means tens of thousands of senior members of the Iranian regime — including many members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) — will now be “inadmissible to Canada.”

Iran’s head of state, members of its cabinet, its ambassadors and its senior diplomats, as well as senior members of the judiciary, military, intelligence agencies and public servants are just some of the thousands of Iranians now permanently banned from entering Canada as a direct result of this designation.

Any of those banned who are already in Canada, Mendicino said “may be investigated and removed.”

Iran has been engaged in a brutal crackdown on protesters amid nationwide protests. The demonstrations first erupted over the Sept. 16 death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini in the custody of the country’s so-called morality police.
