Iranian groups across the world are organizing events on September 16th, 2023, to mark the first anniversary of Mahsa amini’s death, which sparked the recent uprising in Iran. Protests across Canada and the globe will see people united to amplify the voices of the people of Iran who are struggling against this brutal regime, champion women, and stand for freedom and democracy.

We invite all freedom loving Iranians / Canadians to participate in these events.
