The Conservative Party is calling for the parliamentary public safety committee to investigate the federal government’s expenditure of at least $170,000 on repatriating from Syria Canadian women who had joined the ISIS terrorist group.

The letter signed by Conservative MPs asks the Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security to convene immediately and investigate Global News’ reporting showing that Ottawa spent more than $170,000 for returning the eight women who had previously travelled to Syria to join ISIS.
