Toronto, Canada - January 13, 2026 A large rally took place on January 13, 2026, on University Avenue in front of the US Consulate as protesters gathered to demand action over the situation in Iran. Video filmed by X user Babak shows a densely packed crowd filling the street during the demonstration, which unfolded under overcast winter skies. The caption accompanying the footage states: “Iranian Canadians rally at the US consulate demanding action from president Trump. #IranMassacre #IranianRevolution2026 #GodBlessAmerica @POTUS @JDVance @SecRubio” According to incident details, the Toronto rally was part of global solidarity actions held the same day in support of anti-government protests in Iran. Those protests have faced a violent crackdown by the Islamic Republic regime, which has reportedly killed more than 2,000 demonstrators and imposed a nationwide internet blackout. The event was organized by Iranian-Canadian groups and drew estimates ranging from hundreds to thousands of participants, with one report claiming up to 40,000 people. Protesters blocked University Avenue while chanting slogans such as “Trump Act Now” and “Make Iran Great Again.” Demonstrators called for regime change and voiced support for restoring the pre-1979 Iranian monarchy under figures including Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi, while condemning the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The rally followed a recent Truth Social post by US President Donald Trump stating that “help is on the way” to protesters in Iran. Many participants were reportedly unable to contact family members in Iran due to the internet blackout. The protest remained peaceful. Toronto police managed traffic in the area, and no arrests or incidents were reported. Similar demonstrations were held in other Canadian cities, including Vancouver and Richmond Hill, as well as internationally.
