STOP REFUSING CONSCRIPTS
Every photograph from today’s gathering asks the same question: When will these families be heard?
They want written guidelines, genuine individual reviews and a meeting with decision-makers.
They want Canada to recognize that forced conscription does NOT equal IRGC membership.
Canadian journalists, please join them tomorrow in Ottawa.

We are asking for justice. No one should be defined by a system of conscription they never chose. Today, we raise our voices so the world can hear us: behind every file is a human being, a family, and a future.

Human rights defenders, it’s time to act.
🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨
Conscripts are not members.
Please provide a clear guideline to separate conscripts from voluntary members.

An incorrect assessment should never determine someone's future. We protested today against the unjust rejection of Iranian conscripts' applications. Tomorrow, we stand outside IRCC. Canadian media: come witness our peaceful call for justice!

Our families deserve answers, not endless uncertainty. IRCC and CBSA must establish clear guidelines.

STOP REFUSING CONSCRIPTS! Standing proudly at our demonstration in front of IRCC and CBSA today. We are asking for basic human rights: fair process, clear guidelines, and the recognition that conscription in one's youth is not an act of devotion or affiliation. 📸 See attached media from today's gathering. ✅ We are coming back tomorrow! We invite news channels and reporters to interview families affected by these rulings. @CBCNews @CTVNews @globalnews @CityNews @CanadianPress @globeandmail @nationalpost @CP24 @CBCToronto @CTVToronto @CityNewsTO @globalnewsto @TorontoStar @CBCOttawa @ctvottawa @OttawaCitizen @pfragiskatos @LenaMetlegeDiab @gary_srp @jacquesramsaypl @JulieDzerowicz @MichelleRempel @SameerZuberi @amansodhilib @BradRedekopp @SimaAcan @CostasMenegakis @jyduclos @MarcusPowlowski STOP REFUSING CONSCRIPTS #JusticeForIranianConscripts #ConscriptsAreNotMembers

Outside IRCC, parents are asking for an answer they can take home to their children. The request is specific: an exemption for people forced into service, not another cycle of uncertainty. STOP REFUSING CONSCRIPTS.

STOP REFUSING CONSCRIPTS
An essential question must be addressed in the assessment of Iranian conscripts: How can compulsory conscripts be treated as equivalent to voluntary membership without carefully examining the individual's circumstances?
Many people have no meaningful choice about whether they must complete their conscription under the laws of their country. The circumstances of compulsory conscription , the person's actual duties, and their individual history matter when assessing an immigration application.
The Canadian government promised CASE-BY-CASE assessments. Yet families need clarity about the guidelines officers use to put this commitment into practice.
If officers do not have clear and consistent instructions, how can applicants know that their individual circumstances are being considered fairly?
We call on the government to clarify the assessment criteria, explain how mandatory conscription is evaluated, and ensure that each case receives an individualized review.
National security matters. So do fairness, transparency, and the distinction between compulsory service and voluntary participation.
Please give conscript families answers instead of leaving them in uncertainty.

Day 2 of our 3-day peaceful gathering in Ottawa.
Another day of families standing together, refusing to let their voices go unheard.
Behind every immigration file is a human being. Parents who fled repression, built lives in Canada, and contributed to their communities are now facing uncertainty—not only for themselves, but for their children, who had no part in their parents’ compulsory service.
These families are not asking Canada to weaken national security or turn a blind eye to the IRGC. They are asking for a fair process that distinguishes forced conscription from voluntary membership and assesses people based on their individual circumstances.
Silence and uncertainty are not answers. We continue to call on IRCC and CBSA senior decision-makers to meet with affected families, clarify the screening criteria, and address the consequences of these cases.
One day remains. We will keep showing up until these families are heard.
Conscription ≠ IRGC membership. Fairness must include the innocent.

Thank you @BradRedekopp for your support. Most of former conscripts are well educated people including physicians, PHDs, Engineers, etc who contributed building Canada a better place for everyone. Hopefully with your support, they’ll be able to continue making Canada great again.
The Liberals National Security Strategy fails to explain how the government will keep actual terrorists and regime operatives out of the country.
At the same time, Iranians who were forced into mandatory IRGC conscription with no choice are being caught up in the screening system.
That’s dangerous incompetence.

Thank you, @BradRedekopp for speaking out on this important issue. The distinction between ordinary Iranians compelled to serve under an authoritarian regime and genuine IRGC members who aligned with and supported the organization is essential.
At a time when IRGC supporters are openly active in our communities, we must not allow inflated numbers achieved by targeting former conscripts to create a false impression of progress in combating terrorism.
Transparent screening criteria are essential to both fairness and national security. They reassure innocent families that Canada remains committed to human rights while helping ensure genuine threats are identified, and those responsible are not overlooked.
Special thanks to @CPC_HQ for openly supporting this cause and calling for accountability. Real accountability means identifying the perpetrators—not counting the victims.
