A Reality Check with Iranian-Canadians

A Reality Check with Iranian-Canadians

Canada is home to one of the largest Iranian communities outside of Iran in the world. There are over 280,000 Iranian Canadians living here.


The rallies they've held in recent months have been some of the largest that Canada has ever seen. According to the CBC last month, 350,000 people took to the streets in Toronto. And that was before the war had even begun.


Today we’re checking in with three Iranian-Canadians as they watch history unfold.
