Calls for clarity after MP claims Kneecap cannot enter Canada
The Guardian
|October 03, 2025
Canada’s opposition party has asked the government to clarify whether the Belfast rap trio Kneecap have been barred from the country, after doubts emerged over their status.
The Liberal MP Vince Gasparro, the parliamentary secretary for combating crime, posted a video on social media on 19 September in which he said Kneecap were “ineligible” to enter Canada. Gasparro alleged that the band glorified “terrorist organisations” and that they “amplified political violence and publicly displayed support for terrorist organisations such as Hezbollah and Hamas”. He said he was making the video on “behalf of the government of Canada” and acting on official advice.
