Survey of Iranian Canadians Commissioned by AHROME and Conducted by the Metropolis Institute

April 17, 2026

The largest survey of Iranian Canadians conducted to date arrives at a critical moment, offering a timely and comprehensive snapshot of community perspectives amid heightened geopolitical tensions. It seeks to better understand how Iranian Canadians view the ongoing war, their concerns for the safety and well-being of family and friends in Iran, and their aspirations for the country’s future. The survey also explores opinions on what political, social, and structural changes are needed within Iran, as well as views on the forms of leadership that would be most representative and legitimate in guiding the country forward.
