Canada says inadmissibility cases are assessed case by case.If so, shouldn't the circumstances of compulsory service, actual duties, volunteering, ideology, and post-service ties be carefully examined?

Families across Canada are facing uncertainty because fathers were once legally compelled to complete military service in Iran. Their children were born or raised here.

Conscription is not recruitment.
Forced service is not voluntary membership.
Canada must assess former Iranian conscripts case by case.

Someone forced by Iranian law to serve is fundamentally different from someone who voluntarily joined the IRGC.

Mandatory conscription is not voluntary IRGC membership. Iranian men can be legally forced into military service and assigned to the IRGC without choosing it.

Families who had no choice should not pay the price today. Canada must review these cases fairly and individually.

Why were so many PFLs issued to Iranian applicants in just two days? Is this the “case-by-case” review IRCC promised? Families deserve answers, not fear and uncertainty.

On August 6–7, hundreds of Iranian applicants received PFLs over mandatory IRGC conscription. Forced service must not be treated as voluntary IRGC membership.

Iranian conscripts have no choice in their military assignment. They cannot simply refuse an IRGC posting.

Imagine building your life in Canada, then receiving a PFL because you were once forced to complete military service in Iran.

PFLs and PR refusals are destroying the lives of innocent conscripts. Punishing people for forced military service is not justice—it’s a policy failure.

Hundreds of Iranian applicants received PFLs on Aug. 6–7 over past mandatory IRGC conscription. Forced military service should not equal voluntary IRGC membership.
@MarkJCarney @gary_srp @AliEhsassi @PierrePoilievre @MelissaLantsman @NazaninAJ #ConscriptsAreNotMembers

[Quiet Shadow @QuietShado_100]

Mandatory military service is a legal duty, not a political choice. Iranian conscripts had no choice in their assignment. Treating forced service as voluntary destroys innocent lives in Canada.

Forced conscripts should not be punished for service they were forced to perform. They were promised protection. We need clear ministerial guidance to exempt conscripts. We need your help!

Forced conscripts were promised protection, yet they are now punished for something they were forced into. All that is needed is ministerial guidance exempting conscripts. We need your help!

How can Canada ignore the difference between IRGC command and IRGC conscripts?

@UCAN_Advocacy Canada said victims would be protected, yet IRGC conscripts now face rejections and PFLs. Why break that promise?

Just days after @PierrePoilievre called on the gov to take stronger action against genuine terrorist orgs and their members ( https://t.co/xCWmry2H1K ), the Canadian government issued more than 500 Procedural Fairness Letters (#PFL) to #FormerIranianConscripts and their families.
If the priority is to target genuine terrorists and their supporters, why are hundreds of innocent families, people who were compelled into conscription service years ago, now facing fear, uncertainty, and the risk of losing the lives they’ve built in Canada? Victims of coercion should not be treated as perpetrators. Canadians deserve an explanation.

Hundreds of innocent Iranian conscripts and their families are being caught in an unfair system. Mandatory military service is not a choice. Individual cases deserve individual review—not blanket assumptions. This is injustice.

[Quiet Shadow @QuietShado_100]

Conscripts are not IRGC members.

Canada must act with fairness, due process, and humanity.
