Canadian pro-Iranian regime activist Firas Al-Najim, who belongs to the organization CD4HR, said at a vigil held on January 2, 2023 outside the U.S. consulate in Toronto in honor of the third anniversary of the U.S. assassination of IRGC Qods Force Commander General Qassem Soleimani and PMU deputy leader Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis that Soleimani and Al-Muhandis were "martyrs" who had fought for world peace and who have been labeled as terrorist by a "misinformation media campaign". He also led chants of "We are all Qassem Soleimani!" and "Death to America!" A video of the vigil was tweeted by Al-Najim. CD4HR organized similar vigils in 2021 and 2022.
