If this is true, there must be another 100 in Ontario alone who are facing sanctions.
It appears America is waking up to what is going on in allied nations. The human right abuses are expansive I assure you. America is protecting their nation. Canada is NOT what you believe they are, from the creepy police out.
The RCMP and their underling police from the Peel Region to DRPS an TPS are not trusted by the FBI either. Time for your agencies to start keeping an eye on what is going on here, I assure you that the corruption and abuse of our rights and yours runs deep...
WASHINGTON — A British Columbia company has been sanctioned by the United States over its alleged ties to fundraising for the Iran-backed terrorist group Hezbollah.
Seven Seas for International Trading and Logistics is among a network of 16 companies and individuals designated for sanctions by the U.S. Treasury Department, which says they are led by a Hezbollah financier named Alaa Hassan Hamieh.
The U.S. government says the network overseen by Hamieh, his family members and close associates has raised more than $100 million for Hezbollah and is a "critical source" of its funding.
The founder of Seven Seas is identified by the department as Qatar-based Raoof Fadel, who it says is involved in numerous projects with Hamieh and the Hezbollah finance team.
It says Hamieh owns multiple Hezbollah-associated companies, several of which are used for procurement or money laundering, and he has been hiding his ownership by recruiting relatives and associates to hold positions in the firms.
The sanctions mean Seven Seas for International Trading and Logistics is blocked from operating in the U.S., and transactions with the firm are also barred for American firms or individuals or those operating in the U.S.
Seven Seas for International Trading and Logistics hasn't responded to a request for comment.
B.C.'s Ministry of Finance said the province was not alerted to the situation before the U.S. announcement, and officials are reaching out to federal counterparts in light of this development.
"Any next steps from the province would be informed by that engagement with our federal partners," it said.
Hezbollah, founded in 1982, is also designated as a terrorist entity in Canada, with Public Safety Canada calling it "one of the most technically capable terrorist groups in the world."
