In this edition of Hub Hits, Harrison Lowman speaks with Kaveh Shahrooz, a human rights lawyer and senior fellow at the Macdonald-Laurier Institute, about the escalating war between Israel and Iran. Drawing on personal ties to Tehran and years of policy experience, Shahrooz offers an assessment of the Iranian regime’s military capabilities, the mood on the ground inside Iran, and what he describes as a growing disconnect between the government and its people. He also weighs in on Canada’s response, Iranian officials potentially fleeing to Canada, and the real possibility of regime change in the weeks ahead.
