Roqe Ep. 367 - How Should Iranian-Canadians Vote?- Sadeq Bigdeli, Mehrdad Loghmani

On the precipice of a Canadian federal election, a new episode of Roqe features a discussion/debate on the question of how the growing Iranian-Canadian community should vote this time. Jian is joined in the Roqe Studio by Iranian-Canadian lawyer Sadeq Bigdeli advocating for the Conservative Party and Iranian-Canadian academic and author Mehrdad Loghmani speaking in favour of a vote for the Liberal Party. It is a comprehensive and passionate episode that covers a lot of territory with respect to the alignment, interests, issues and voting patterns of people of Iranian descent in Canada. Plus, Jian begins the episode with an essay imploring Iranian-Canadians to vote and be seen.
