Children deserve stability, hope, and a future free from uncertainty.
Today, families are peacefully gathering outside IRCC in Ottawa to share their concerns about how compulsory conscription affects their immigration cases.
We respectfully request a meeting with the Immigration Minister to share their stories and discuss the need for clear, fair guidelines.
Protecting Canada’s security and treating families fairly can go hand in hand.

STOP REFUSING CONSCRIPTS.
Do you consider this baby a terrorist? Shame on you for letting innocent children bear the consequences of a parent’s forced conscription.
Seeing this photo shattered my heart. A baby in a stroller beside a sign pleading for fairness. What has this child done wrong?
IRCC, where is your humanity? How can you see families pleading outside your doors and leave them without meaningful answers?
Recognize coercion. Judge people by their own actions. Stop making families pay for a choice they never had.

IRCC, we have travelled to Ottawa and gathered peacefully because we want to be heard.
We are not asking others to speak on our behalf forever.
We are educated professionals, parents, and members of Canadian communities who can explain our own histories.
Please arrange a meeting between senior IRCC officials and representatives of affected conscripts.
Let us speak for ourselves.

If Canada promises case-by-case assessments, why are affected families still asking whether coercion was genuinely considered?
That question brought Iranian families outside IRCC in Ottawa today.
It will bring them back tomorrow.
Journalists, please come document their concerns and hear their experiences firsthand.

Families should not have to stand outside a government office for days simply to request a meeting. Journalists, please come to IRCC in Ottawa tomorrow and ask why Iranian forced conscripts are still waiting to be heard.

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.

They escaped the regime. They did not escape the consequences of what it forced them to do.
Now Iranian families face Canadian immigration uncertainty because of mandatory conscription.
Canada must distinguish forced conscription from willing membership.
Today’s peaceful gathering in Ottawa was a call for that distinction to be respected.

STOP REFUSING CONSCRIPTS. Children should never have to live with the fear of losing a parent because of something that parent was forced to do years ago. These families came to Canada hoping to build a safe future, give their children opportunities, and live without fear. Now their entire future is uncertain. Canada urgently needs a clear and fair guideline for conscripts. Children deserve stability, protection, and the right to grow up with their parents.

How many photographs of peaceful families standing outside IRCC will it take before their questions receive meaningful answers?
They were there yesterday.
They returned today.
And tomorrow, they intend to return again.
Canadian newsrooms: Please come hear why forced conscription does NOT mean IRGC membership.

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.
