At 18, facing a mandatory draft in Iran, you're just trying to survive. Nobody at that age is thinking about future immigration policies. Punishing adults today for surviving a dictatorship as teenagers makes zero sense.
#JusticeForIranianConscripts#ConscriptsAreNotMembers
@GarnettGenuis Thanks for speaking up about this. Forced conscription is not the same as voluntarily joining the IRGC. Many Iranian-Canadian families have been affected by this unfair situation. Really appreciate you bringing our concerns to Parliament.
@GarnettGenuis Thank you for your support such a pleasure to meet you here today
Conscripts are victims they should target the IRGC members not making numbers with innocent conscripts who they had to go by the force.
@GarnettGenuis@MohsenM8019 Thanks you @GarnettGenuis for standing with innocent conscripts being punished instead of IRGC commanders. Your support for fairness and justice for Iranian conscripts means so much to individuals who chose Canada as their home with hope and contributed to Canada's success.
@GarnettGenuis Thank you, Mr. Genuis, for standing with these families and recognizing this crucial distinction. Victims of compulsory conscription should not be treated as voluntary members of a terrorist organization. Your continued advocacy gives many families hope. Please keep pushing
@GarnettGenuis Thanks for standing with Iranian families who are victims. It's unfair to Canadians when their tax dollars go toward 'protection' that misses the actual threat. Their government should target genuine IRGC members not conscripts who were themselves victims of the IRGC.
@GarnettGenuis Thank you, @GarnettGenuis for standing up for innocent former Iranian conscripts and their families. We truly appreciate your support. 🙏
@GarnettGenuis Thank you so much @GarnettGenuis for supporting us and being our voice. Conscripts are innocent and government should stop punishing them.
