Description:

Canada granted a former Iranian military commander and current soccer official permission to come to Canada, then revoked his permit and turned him away once he arrived. As ministers cite privacy concerns and a lack of awareness for giving few details, Power & Poltiics asks Secretary of State for Sport Adam van Koeverden about the timeline. Plus, Trudeau-era cabinet mainstay Jonathan Wilkinson explains why he's leaving the Carney government to take a diplomatic post in Brussels.
