Why Iranian Canadians are holding their collective breath

Kaveh Shahrooz, lawyer, human rights activist and former senior policy advisor on human rights to Global Affairs Canada, discusses the U.S. and Israel's strikes on Iran and the expanding regional conflict. He describes the scale of Iran's retaliation, the significance of Ayatollah Khamenei's assassination for Iranian Canadians, and whether October 7th was the regime's initial catastrophic miscalculation that will spell its demise. He also analyzes Canada's muddled policy response, the regime's martyrdom ideology, and the diverging objectives between Israel and the U.S. regarding Iran's future.
