Canada reportedly preparing to evacuate 45,000 citizens from Lebanon amid war fears
National Post ^ | June 21, 2024 | Times of Israel

Canada is preparing a massive evacuation of its citizens from Lebanon should a full-scale war break out between Israel and Hezbollah, Channel 12 reports.

The report quotes from a conversation held Friday between Foreign Minister Israel Katz and his Canadian counterpart Mélanie Joly.

The report says the conversation was tense and that Joly told Katz that the Canadian military was drawing up plans to evacuate 45,000 people from Lebanon.

Katz reportedly urged Ottawa to put pressure on Hezbollah’s Iranian backers to reign in the terror group.

There was no official read out of the conversation.

However, Katz later posted on X: "Israel cannot allow the Hezbollah terror organization to continue attacking its territory and citizens, and soon we will make the necessary decisions. The free world must unconditionally stand with Israel in its war against the axis of evil led by Iran and extremist Islam."

Why? Why are their 45,000 Canadians living in Lebanon?

Is Canada itself worse than Lebanon?

I looked it up. The answer is that these “Canadians” are actually Lebanese who migrated to Canada and then back to their homeland.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadians_in_Lebanon

So here they are again. Playing musical chairs. Time to go back to Canada. Again.

How the hell are their 45,000 Canadian in Lebanon?

I find that number to be ridiculous. Why would there be that many Canadians there?

If they put this up for a vote it would fail in a landslide but that means nothing to little Fidel and his gang.

It was the same thing in 2006. All these “Canadians” living in Lebanon and demanding to be rescued for free. Now it is 45,000 not 15000.

I don’t have a clue, since I’m unfamiliar with Canada.

Maybe they hand out citizenship to foreign nationals like Halloween candy.
