Iranian Canadian groups say the Canadian government is not doing enough. These groups are trying to track down Iranian regime members and affiliates who are now in Canada.
"We have had many suspicious people roaming around in the protest, taking pictures, and you can't accuse anyone without knowing exactly who they are. But it's that uncomfortable feeling that a lot of people have, their looking over their shoulders," she said.
At Toronto Pearson International airport last December, a small group waited in arrivals for a traveller who they believe is affiliated with the regime. They said they had received tips from dissidents inside Iran. Lawyer Mojdeh Shahriari says the federal government needs to step up efforts to ensure possible supporters of the Iranian regime don't enter Canada unchecked.
said Kaveh Shahrooz, a human rights activist more discreetly tracking regime members in Canada; he receives tips and carefully researches those leads. "I worry that the same thing is going to happen as the Iranian regime comes under pressure and hopefully collapses. And a lot of them, I suspect, are gonna be coming to Canada," he said.Canada's spy agency, CSIS, told CBC News it continues to investigate the threat of the regime in Canada.
