IRCC and CBSA should focus their time, resources, and investigations on genuine security threats, not automatically equate innocent conscripts with voluntary IRGC members.
Canada’s security and fairness both deserve better.
#ConscriptsAreNotMembers
No one should confuse forced military service with voluntary support.
Decisions made decades ago under compulsion should not determine whether a child grows up with both parents.
#ConscriptsAreNotMembers
Children don’t understand immigration law. They understand bedtime stories, family dinners, and the comfort of having their parents beside them.
Their childhood deserves protection.
#ConscriptsAreNotMembers
Thousands of families in Canada face uncertainty because of mandatory IRGC conscription, despite having no choice in their service.
Canada must protect national security while ensuring fairness. Train officers, establish clear guidelines, and assess each person individually based on their role, conduct, and evidence as government promised.
Former conscripts should not be treated as IRGC members.

Canada needs clear, official guidelines for IRCC and CBSA to distinguish compulsory military service from voluntary IRGC membership. Conscription alone should not define someone’s affiliation. Fair, evidence-based assessments matter.

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
True justice means looking beyond labels and recognizing individual circumstances. No family should have its future destroyed because of a choice that was never theirs to make.

Dear MPs
After all the misleading assurances from IRCC, we deserve an honest answer before it’s too late. We cannot stay in Canada waiting to be deported to the very regime that slaughters its opponents. We deserve the truth!

بازم یه رجکتی دیگه برای یه سرباز اجباری؛ یه آینده و یه زندگی دیگه که نابود شد. پس ما صدای کدوم بیگناه رو داریم بلند میکنیم؟ فرق ما با اونایی که جنایتهای جمهوری اسلامی رو نادیده میگیرن چیه؟ #ConscriptsAreNotMembers
As an Iranian man over 18, you cannot simply obtain a passport or other necessary documents needed to live a normal life without dealing with the Mullahs' regime mandatory conscription requirements.
For many men, the only practical option is to complete approximately two years of compulsory service as a free labor
In Iran, refusing forced conscription means no passport, no degree, no job. Canada is now penalizing people for surviving that system.

Families who escaped and spent years building lives here are now stuck because of service they never wanted decades ago. The stress on spouses is brutal. #ConscriptsAreNotMembers
