Behind every affected family are children whose lives, security, and futures are at stake. They deserve stability, safety, and the chance to thrive, not to suffer because of circumstances their parents had no choice in. No child should bear the consequences of mandatory military service.

@CanadaFP Official guidelines for IRCC and CBSA to distinguish mandatory military conscription from voluntary IRGC membership.

[Melissa @Melissatajbakhs]

Children should never have to carry the weight of decisions their parents had no choice in making. Their childhood should be filled with love, security, and hope, not fear and uncertainty about tomorrow.

@AliEhsassi Happy thanksgiving @AliEhsassi thank you for your support of innocent former conscripts. Please keep advocating and push for bill c-350 presented by @GarnettGenuis. The solution is available. Please keep your promise. @LenaMetlegeDiab

@SameerZuberi Please remember Iranian forced IRGC conscripts and their families. PFLs have plunged parents and children into severe psychological distress and uncertainty. Canada needs clear public guidelines distinguishing forced conscript from voluntary membersb,

Children should never bear the consequences of circumstances their parents could not control. Every child deserves safety, stability, and a future filled with hope.

Imagine being forced to serve in an organization you never supported, only to be judged years later as if you had willingly joined it.

This is the reality many Iranian conscripts face.

Compulsory service does not equal ideological loyalty.

For Canadian-born children, Canada is home. Their childhood should be about learning, growing, and dreaming—not fear of family separation.

🚨 This is an injustice. Our loved ones’ lives are at risk.

These Iranian men had no choice. They were forced to complete military service and had no choice over where they were assigned.

They should not now be treated as willing supporters of the very regime they oppose.

Our loved ones cannot safely return to Iran. Some have taken part in political activities against the Islamic regime, including the Lion and Sun movement. They fear arrest, persecution and threats to their lives if they are sent back. Their political activities and the danger they face must be taken seriously.

Sending people back to face persecution would violate their human rights. These are human lives, not just immigration files.

Canadian-born children should not be forced to leave their home and live under that brutal government to stay with their parents. They should not face family separation because their fathers completed compulsory military service years ago.

These families are suffering for something they never freely chose. This is deeply unfair.

Canada must establish clear guidelines that distinguish compulsory service from voluntary involvement. Every former conscript deserves a fair, individual assessment based on their actual duties, lack of choice, personal conduct and risks upon return.

Please listen to these families. Protect their children. Do not let forced service become a lifelong punishment.

First they were forced into compulsory service by a brutal regime, and now they get punished in Canada for it. Blaming people twice for a system they couldn't escape makes zero sense.

[Mozhi @Mozhi1989]

Most Iranian conscripts spend two years sweeping floors or guarding doors. They aren't decision makers, just kids doing forced chores so they can start a normal life. Treating them like regime insiders makes zero sense.

@MitiComaan @Farahbakhs39012 Canada said victims would be protected, yet IRGC conscripts now face rejections and PFLs. Why break that promise?

[UnheardConscripts @UCAN_Advocacy]

Dear Minister Anand, your post rightly highlights the importance of protecting national security, confronting the Iranian regime’s hostile activities, and holding those responsible for threatening Canadians accountable.

But an equally important question remains: Are we directing our resources at the right targets?
Why are former conscripts, many of whom fled the very regime Canada is standing against, facing consequences for compulsory conscription? In contrast, Iranian regime operatives continue to threaten and intimidate dissidents on Canadian soil.

Many of these former conscripts and their families have actively opposed the regime from Canada. Some face threats from the very people Canada seeks to hold accountable. Yet these families now fear being sent to the country they fled.

We must pursue genuine threats, protect Canadians from foreign interference, and ensure that innocent families are not treated as perpetrators simply because they were forced to complete conscription many years ago.

Minister, if our goal is to protect Canadians from the Iranian regime, shouldn't we be protecting the people who fled it and are now helping expose its threats?

🍁 Happy Thanksgiving, @TerryDuguid

This weekend, Canadians give thanks for family, safety and freedom.

But many Iranian-Canadian families are living with fear and uncertainty because of compulsory conscription their loved ones never chose. Former conscripts are facing refusals, prolonged proceedings and possible separation from their families.

Some fled the very regime they were forced to serve under. Treating compulsory conscription as equivalent to voluntary IRGC involvement does not make Canada safer.

This Thanksgiving, please help give these families something to be thankful for: clear, transparent guidelines for IRCC and CBSA that distinguish compulsory conscription from IRGC membership or support, and ensure fair, individualized assessments.

Target genuine threats. Protect innocent families.

Behind every immigration case is a human story. A family, a home, and children whose futures depend on decisions made today. Compassion and fairness matter.

Clear guidelines are urgently needed to distinguish mandatory conscripts from actual IRGC members. Innocent people and their families should not suffer for something they never chose.
