I don't think the Canadian government have a problem with a non-stop flight to BEY, I think it is the US government that is against it, just like what happend in 2003 for AC YULBEY summer flight.
I'm not quite sure if these concerns are reasonable or not, but the influence of Hizbollah on the airport operation in BEY is widely rumored.
