Canadian election outcome indicates demand to avoid extremism

The Canadian people want their government to refrain from radical policies, Afkham said in reaction to the outcome of general elections in Canada.

The Foreign Ministry spokeswoman said Tuesday that the outcome of general election in Canada was the reaction of Canadian people to the radical policies of the Conservative government.

Marzieh Afkham said that the results reflected the desire of the Canadian people to refrain from radical policies and that Iran respects the choice of the Canadian people.

Canadians went to the polls on Monday for ‘Big Change’. The Liberal Party led by Justin Trudeau defeated the Conservative Party’s Stephen Harper, who pursued a tough line on Iran.
