United For Iran

We, the Iranian Students’ Associations across Canada, have come together to demonstrate our solidarity and support for our patriots fighting for a free Iran. As of today, reports indicate over 12,000 deaths as we enter the sixth day of a complete internet shutdown in Iran. To honour the bravery of those who have sacrificed their lives for a free Iran, and to raise awareness among university students and Western media, we invite everyone, whether a student or not, to join us on Friday, January 16th, from 6:00pm – 7:30pm at the BMH Green Space (near SLC-MC bridge). We encourage all participants to bring national symbols of Iran, printed photos of those murdered or imprisoned by the Islamic Republic, informational posters regarding the current uprisings in Iran, and the flag of our Canada to show that Iranian Canadians are united with their people in our motherland and our second home. Please refrain from bringing other nations’ flags or symbols, as we aim to maintain focus on our beloved country, Iran. For safety purposes: We encourage attendees to dress appropriately for the weather. Media representatives will be present, and you may be photographed. Please feel free to cover your face if you do not wish for your face to be shown. We acknowledge that diverse opinions exist across the diaspora and among non-Iranian individuals. If anyone attempts to disrupt or hijack our rally, please refrain from any verbal or physical confrontation and inform the organizers. Campus Police will address the situation safely.
