In Response to the Call by Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi As the regime attempts to bury the remains of its supreme criminal, Ali Khamenei, and as we mark the sixth month of the courageous national uprising of January 8–9, during the Global Week of Action for a Free Iran, we will gather in front of the U.S. Consulate in Calgary to deliver the message of the Iranian people to the American people and government on the anniversary of the United States’ Independence Day: “Do not negotiate with terrorists. Choose the people of Iran.” Together, we will also celebrate and bid farewell to the decaying remnants of the tyrant, sending them to the dustbin of history. One Nation, One Flag, One Slogan — Reza Pahlavi. Saturday, July 4 2:00–3:00 PM In front of the U.S. Consulate, Calgary Long Live Iran. Long Live the Shah.

Prince Reza Pahlavi: “It is we, the people of Iran, who must deliver the final blow to the weakened regime and bring about its downfall.” Once again, we raise our voices together and echo the voice of the people of Iran in saying: No to the Islamic Republic, and no to executions. It is our duty to stand firm and amplify the voice of the people of Iran to the world, so that the international community is compelled to confront the Islamic Republic’s systematic human rights violations and take a stand against injustice and executions. Let us unite in solidarity and work together for the overthrow of the criminal Islamic regime, until the day when the Iranian people themselves determine Iran’s future through the ballot box and within a democratic system. This is Reza Pahlavi's national message.

Prince Reza Pahlavi: The opportunity to finish off a wounded beast [the Islamic Republic] must not be missed. The Islamic Republic is a full-fledged criminal regime that, in the final days of its existence, has viciously turned against Iran and the Iranian people, taking another young life from us every day. To bring this vile regime to an end, we must, as always, remain united and stand together across all beliefs, ethnicities, and languages, and make the voices of the voiceless, the fallen heroes, and the brave patriots of our homeland heard around the world. We come forward to support the people of Iran and the National Lion and Sun Revolution under the leadership of Prince Reza Pahlavi, so that by moving beyond the Islamic Republic, we can build Iran’s future with our own votes and our own hands. Our gathering place: Calgary City Hall Plaza Saturday, May 16, from 2:00–3:00 PM This is the national slogan: Reza, Reza Pahlavi Long live Iran Long live the Shah Committee for Supporting the National Revolution of the People of Iran – Javidan Guard, Calgary
