Unless it involves nothing more strenuous then issuing Press releases. Don't expect the Canadian Government to lift a finger if you find yourselves in such situation.
If we were truly honest we would rename Global Affairs the Department of Virtue Signaling.
And replace the current recorded messages on the 1-800 numbers with the phrase " Drop Dead! And could you be kind enough do it out of sight of the media ."

I am all for making sure none of the clerics or members of the IRGC can ever reside in Canada. We don't want or need them.

I agree and if they should happen to show up on Canadian soil I would expect them to be arrested immediately and held without bail, then returned to Iran to face their accusers.
