Toronto, Canada — January 17, 2026 — Once again, despite the snowy and subzero temperatures, freedom-loving Iranians and supporters of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) in Toronto held a rally in solidarity with the nationwide uprising in Iran and its brave protesters. Participants held pictures of the martyrs of the ongoing nationwide protests and chanted anti-regime slogans to express their support for compatriots who have risen up inside Iran.

During the gathering, participants sang revolutionary anthems and pledged to continue the path of the uprising’s martyrs until the overthrow of the mullahs’ dictatorial regime in Iran.

Demonstrators called for the establishment of a free and democratic republic in Iran, rejecting all forms of autocracy—whether monarchical or theocratic. They carried banners echoing the demands of protesters inside the country, including “Regime change in Iran by the people of Iran” and “No to the Shah! No to the Mullahs.”

The rally also highlighted the plight of protesters in Iran, where the regime has resorted to internet shutdowns, hospital raids, and widespread repression to silence dissent. Despite a severe media blackout, thousands of victims have been identified. Participants in Toronto urged that the voices of Iranian protesters be heard, calling on the international community to deny the regime any sources of revenue and to recognize the Iranian people’s right to a free, democratic republic.

The Toronto rally sent a powerful message to the international community to stand with the people of Iran—not with any form of dictatorship—and to support their ongoing struggle for freedom, justice, and democracy.
