Canadian lawyer on political sponsorships of Iranian political prisoners

It has now been 100 days since the start of what appears to be a revolutionary movement in Iran against the ruling Islamic Republic. At least 18 thousand people - including an Oscar winning actress - a famous Iranian rapper - children - doctors - lawyers - and journalists - have been imprisoned. Lawyer, human rights activist and senior fellow at the Macdonald -Laurier Institute Kaveh Shahrooz spoke to Paul Haysom on how political sponsorships can help save the lives of those imprisoned.
