A major rally in North York on Saturday demands that the Canadian government recognize Iran’s exiled crown prince Reza Pahlavi as the leader of Iran’s democratic transition, following recent anti-government protests in Iran. Co-organizer Aveen Ghahremani emphasized the importance of raising awareness and supporting those still in Iran, while demonstrators called for an end to government repression. The event, part of a global day of action, also highlighted the ongoing national crisis in Iran, where protests have resulted in significant violence and repression. Toronto police estimated attendance at over 200,000, with similar rallies taking place worldwide, reflecting widespread calls for regime change in Iran.
