Harjit Sajjan is facing opposition criticism because he did not make any public statement about human rights during his visit to Qatar.
“This is talking out of both sides of your mouth, with this government,” McPherson said.On Monday, MPs passed a unanimous motion condemning FIFA for threatening to penalize players who wore the “One Love” armbands. The motion argued that “international sporting governing bodies have a moral obligation to support players and fans in highlighting the fight for equality against homophobia, transphobia, and all forms of discrimination in sport.
Media reports from Qatar also said some fans wearing rainbow attire were refused entry to the stadiums. Soccer Canada released a statement last month in support of ongoing reforms, but steered clear of criticizing the emirate. The Conservatives did not have a direct comment on Sajjan’s actions. Instead, MP Michael Chong said his party prefers that the World Cup be hosted by countries with better reputations, such as a bid by Ukraine to co-host the 2030 tournament with Spain and Portugal.
