Forced conscription into the IRGC does not make someone a member. Most of these guys had zero say in where they were sent and later left the country for a better life. Canada should look at what they actually did. #ConscriptsAreNotMembers
Liberals promised Iranian community: listing the IRGC while considering the conscripts' situation
Result?
Taking the conscripts as members! Hundreds PFLs, uncertainty, and the longest background checks for Iranians! Please end this injustice

Canada stands against the Iranian regime's abuses. Please don't let people who were compelled to serve under that system be treated as if they chose to support it. There is a difference between surviving a system and supporting it. #ConscriptsAreNotMembers
Former innocent conscripts are not IRGC members. They are victims of the fanatic Mullahs' regime.
Conscription under the Mullahs' regime was forced survival, not political alignment.
Refusal meant complete civil exclusion. Canadian policy must not mischaracterize former conscripts as IRGC affiliates.
Passing Bill C-350 establishes a clear, fair distinction between true perpetrators and victims seeking survival and freedom. Please reconsider the practice of penalizing innocent former Iranian conscripts

In Iran, they hold your university diploma hostage until you finish compulsory service. Punishing regular guys years later just for trying to get their degree makes zero sense.

In Iran, universities won't even hand over your degree unless you finish compulsory service. Punishing educated guys for doing what they had to do just to get a job makes zero sense.

The bond between Iran and Israel is historic and unbreakable. The Islamic Republic and the purveyors of hatred cannot tear us apart.
