The Canadian government has
reportedly ordered the scientific
journals of the country not to publish
articles authored by Iranian
researchers and scientists, Press TV
has learnt.

Iranian academics, who had primarily
received an acceptance from the journals,
have received new messages that notified
them of the journals' decision not to
publish their work due to recent policies
adopted by the Canadian government.
In a recent move, the Canadian Journal of
Psychiatric Nursing Research refused to
publish an article by an Iranian assistant
professor despite the earlier acceptance
of the article.
The journal argued that it "will not be
permitted to publish" the article as
previously stated, citing the political and
non-academic reasons. It said that
Ottawa had closed down its mission in
Tehran for what it called the “civil rights
abuse of the citizens of Iran” and “the
threat to the security of Canadian
personnel and Israel.”
On September 7, the Canadian
government closed its embassy in Tehran
and ordered Iranian diplomats to leave
Canada within five days.
In a statement, Canadian Foreign Affairs
Minister John Baird said Canada views
Iran “as the most significant threat to
global peace and security in the world,”
adding that Iran “routinely threatens the
existence of Israel.”
The Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman
Ramin Mehmanparast censured Ottawa’s
decision as undiplomatic and a move in
line with the policies dictated by Israel.
“The hostile actions of the current racist
Canadian government are in fact in line
with the policies that are dictated by the
Zionist regime (Israel) and the British
government,” Mehmanparast said.
Pundits believe Canada’s move to sever
diplomatic ties with Iran unveils Ottawa’s
submissive attitude toward the Israeli
regime.
“Canada’s abrupt move to sever all ties
with the Islamic Republic of Iran
manifestly springs from a strong Zionist
sway which has permeated the political
structure of the country,” Iranian
academic Ismail Salami wrote in an op-ed
published on Press TV website on
September 11.
The analyst said that governed as a
constitutional monarchy with British
Queen Elizabeth II as its head of state,
Canada could be viewed as a country
“supporting colonizing regimes such as
Israel and seeking to isolate the peaceful
nation of Iran.”
Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper
and Baird have time and again expressed
unconditional support for Israel, and are
widely believed for dancing to every tune
of Israel.
