STOP REFUSING CONSCRIPTS The system is treating forced service as if it was a free choice. It was not. Case-by-case assessment based on real duties and evidence is the only fair path. @CBCNews @CTVNews @globeandmail @nationalpost @TorontoStar @LenaMetlegeDiab @pfragiskatos @GarnettGenuis @gary_srp @MarkJCarney #JusticeForIranianConscripts #ConscriptsAreNotMembers

STOP REFUSING CONSCRIPTS Education. Career. Family. Stability. A bright future. These are what they seek — not membership in anything. Compulsory service is not voluntary membership. @CBCNews @CTVNews @globeandmail @nationalpost @TorontoStar @LenaMetlegeDiab @pfragiskatos @MarkJCarney @GarnettGenuis @gary_srp #JusticeForIranianConscripts #ConscriptsAreNotMembers

STOP REFUSING CONSCRIPTS In front of IRCC & CBSA Offices in Ottawa — families are asking for fairness, not special treatment. Forced service ≠ membership. @CBCNews @CTVNews @globeandmail @nationalpost @TorontoStar @LenaMetlegeDiab @pfragiskatos @gary_srp @MarkJCarney @GarnettGenuis #JusticeForIranianConscripts #ConscriptsAreNotMembers

STOP REFUSING CONSCRIPTS Compulsory military service is not voluntary membership. The law forced them in. Canada should not treat that as membership. Fairness means case-by-case, not blanket refusals. @CBCNews @CTVNews @globeandmail @nationalpost @TorontoStar @LenaMetlegeDiab @pfragiskatos @GarnettGenuis @gary_srp @BradRedekopp #JusticeForIranianConscripts #ConscriptsAreNotMembers

STOP REFUSING CONSCRIPTS They came looking for education, career, family and stability. Don’t punish them for a draft they never controlled. 3-day demonstration continues in Ottawa. @CBCNews @CTVNews @globeandmail @nationalpost @TorontoStar @LenaMetlegeDiab @pfragiskatos @MarkJCarney @GarnettGenuis @gary_srp #JusticeForIranianConscripts #ConscriptsAreNotMembers

STOP REFUSING CONSCRIPTS Many young men were assigned by law. No option. No escape. Now their applications are refused as if they chose it. Each case must be assessed individually and fairly. @CBCNews @CTVNews @globeandmail @nationalpost @TorontoStar @LenaMetlegeDiab @pfragiskatos @GarnettGenuis @BradRedekopp @gary_srp #JusticeForIranianConscripts #ConscriptsAreNotMembers

STOP REFUSING CONSCRIPTS Forced service is not a choice. They did not pick the branch, the location, or the duties. Compulsory service ≠ voluntary membership. Families deserve case-by-case fairness, not blanket refusals. @CBCNews @CTVNews @globeandmail @nationalpost @TorontoStar @LenaMetlegeDiab @pfragiskatos @gary_srp @GarnettGenuis @MarkJCarney #JusticeForIranianConscripts #ConscriptsAreNotMembers

Appreciate @BradRedekopp raising the clear gap in Canada’s National Security Strategy. Real terrorists and regime operatives must be kept out, while Iranians forced into mandatory IRGC conscription with no choice deserve fair, case-by-case review — not automatic treatment as members. This distinction is essential for both security and justice. #ConscriptsAreNotMembers #JusticeForIranianConscripts @BradRedekopp @GarnettGenuis @MichelleRempel @LenaMetlegeDiab @AliEhsassi @JulieDzerowicz @gary_srp @CostasMenegakis @SameerZuberi @SimaAcan
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.

STOP REFUSING CONSCRIPTS Halloween should bring excitement, not fear. Our children deserve to worry about costumes and candy, not whether their families will be separated. @pfragiskatos @LenaMetlegeDiab @gary_srp @jacquesramsaypl @CitImmCanada @markjcarney @natilienjoseph @FrankCaputoKTN @michellerempel @jacquesramsaypl @annamgainey @jeneroux @CostasMenegakis @CitImmCanada @rechievaldez @CanBorder #JusticeForIranianConscripts #ConscriptsAreNotMembers

STOP REFUSING CONSCRIPTS. This Halloween, our message is simple: children are not immigration files. They are human beings with dreams, friendships, schools, and families. @LenaMetlegeDiab @pfragiskatos @gary_srp @jacquesramsaypl @CitImmCanada @markjcarney @natilienjoseph @FrankCaputoKTN @michellerempel @jacquesramsaypl @annamgainey @jeneroux @CostasMenegakis @CitImmCanada @rechievaldez @CanBorder #JusticeForIranianConscripts #ConscriptsAreNotMembers
