This week, Jesse sat down with Goldie Ghamari, an Iranian-Canadian activist and former MPP. Having immigrated to Canada from Iran as a child, Goldie has spent decades speaking out against the Iranian regime and the IRGC, drawing from her firsthand understanding of the regime’s tyranny.
She speaks with Jesse about the urgency of dismantling the IRGC, the future of Iran, and the Iranian people’s pursuit of freedom. They also discuss the growing problem of extremism in Canada and how rising anti-Western sentiment is creating a dangerous environment for democracy and Canadians alike.
