“At what cost has China’s economic miracle been achieved, and have we
abetted human rights crimes by pretending ignorance?” asked Green Party
leader Elizabeth May.
“Questions need to be asked of our trade department and of the
Canadian business community. With the well-documented and long-standing
abuses in China and Tibet, and the human rights lawsuits against Bo
Xilai in at least 13 countries including Canada, how could they be
totally ignorant of these horrendous crimes?”
The statement said that while other faith groups, such as
House-Christians, are also being persecuted, the Chinese Communist Party
(CCP) fears the strength and growth of the Falun Gong, which is reputed
to number between 70 and 100 million adherents in China.
