Fairness begins with understanding the full story. People should be judged by their own actions, not by circumstances imposed upon them. Their children and families deserve compassion, stability, and a fair chance.

We need to be heard. We need fairness.

Iranian conscripts had no choice in their military assignments. Yet families who built their lives in Canada now face refusals and the risk of losing everything.

Canada must distinguish forced service from voluntary IRGC involvement.

We demand justice, not collective punishment!

Iranian conscripts are not members. Make a guideline to distinguish them.

Borderlines Podcast #235 - IRGC Conscripts Face Deportation. @hq_cpc MP @GarnettGenuis has a Solution.

Canada designated Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organization in 2024. But what happens to people who were forced to serve in the IRGC through mandatory military conscription, committed no crimes, and later immigrated to Canada?

We are joined by Conservative Member of Parliament Garnett Genuis to discuss the growing immigration crisis facing former IRGC conscripts and their families. In 2023, Genuis introduced Bill C-350, which proposed amending Canada's Immigration and Refugee Protection Act to distinguish between individuals who voluntarily joined terrorist organizations and those who were forcibly conscripted.

The proposed amendment would protect individuals who completed only their mandatory service, did not remain voluntarily, and did not participate in terrorism, espionage, or subversion. Despite the subsequent designation of the IRGC as a terrorist organization, this proposed legislative solution was never adopted. The discussion explores why the government has not acted, the consequences of Canada's current inadmissibility framework, the limitations of judicial review and humanitarian relief, and what affected individuals can do to advocate for legislative reform.

Compulsory service is not membership. Issue clear guidelines to distinguish Iranian conscripts from willing IRGC members.

Canada must ensure IRCC and CBSA have clear, official guidelines that distinguish forced service from willing participation. Innocent people deserve fairness, dignity, and protection—not lifelong consequences for choices they never had.#ConscriptsAreNotMembers #HumanRights

[HoFe6971 @Hofe6971]

Being forced to serve should not define someone’s future. Please give former Iranian conscripts fair, individual assessments. @JulieDzerowicz @amansodhilib @MichelleRempel @gary_srp @LenaMetlegeDiab @jacquesramsaypl #ConscriptsAreNotMembers

[Mike E @MikeEkhtiari]

Compulsory service is not the same as membership.
Thousands of young Iranians are forced into military service under threat, they are not members of the IRGC.

[Ari @cast_a_w_a_y]

In Iran, without finishing compulsory service, you can't open a bank account, get a driver's license, or go to university. It's required just to live a normal life. Treating forced service like a choice makes zero sense.

[SEYED MOHAMMAD NAJAFI @najafinm]

Compulsory service does not prove loyalty to a regime. Assess former Iranian conscripts by their actions and individual circumstances. @JulieDzerowicz @amansodhilib @MichelleRempel @gary_srp @LenaMetlegeDiab @jacquesramsaypl #ConscriptsAreNotMembers

MPs: please act. Canada needs clear guidelines distinguishing forced conscripts from genuine IRGC members. Mandatory conscription alone should not make innocent applicants targets of inadmissibility. A legislative solution, building on the approach proposed in Bill C-350, can protect national security and fairness together.

We didnt have any choice, we were innocent compulsory conscript, we were like prisoners and members were like prison gaurd, we didn’t its members at all.

[Babak @BabakNi2584]

Immigration and border decisions should follow clear, consistent guidance. We ask the Canadian government to provide IRCC and CBSA with formal guidelines on how to assess past compulsory conscription involving the IRGC, while distinguishing it from voluntary membership or cooperation. Affected individuals deserve clarity about how their circumstances will be evaluated.

IRGC operatives must be removed from Canada. Meanwhile, forced conscripts who had no choice are being wrongly targeted.

Imagine being forced into military service just to go to college or get a job, and then getting punished for it years later. Iranian conscripts do not get a choice in serving, so treating them like voluntary members makes no sense. #JusticeForIranianConscripts #ConscriptsAreNotMembers
