Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The restriction on selling military fighter jets to Iran is most likely to protect national security. This is because Iran is a country with a history of tense relations with many Western countries, including Canada. Selling military fighter jets to Iran could potentially lead to the transfer of sensitive military technology to Iran, putting Canadian national security at risk.
