Bambi just learned from Naharnet<\/em> and l’Orient Le Jour<\/em>, citing Al-Arabiya Network<\/em> that our Canadian federal government “has tasked a committee with investigating money laundering, gambling and drug smuggling operations through casinos in Vancouver, in which a network reportedly affiliated with the Iranian regime and Hizbullah are involved..<\/em>.”. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As stated by a former Canadian Royal Mounted Police officer cited in Naharne<\/em>t: \u201dWe have seen their continuing affinity (Iranian regime network and Hizbullah) with Chinese network active in illegal activities in Canada<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As explained by a former Canadian Immigration Minister, namely Mr. Chris Alexander and as reported by Naharnet<\/em>: \u201cInvestigations into these matters are dangerous and complex, but the [Canadian] authorities are trying to address them. This is a complicated matter in dealing with Iran and its networks<\/em>.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n
