Citizens Increase Calls for Canada to Stand Up to China

Canadian citizens want continued, harsher treatment towards China.

In response to the appointment of Catroina Le May Doan as head of the Canadian 2022 Olympic delegation, an Ottawa citizen calls for Canada to boycott the Beijing Winter Olympics entirely.

“How can we possibly be thinking of sending Canadians under our flag to a country that is holding two of our citizens hostage; that has threatened Canadians in Hong Kong; and that continues to use trade as a weapon against us?”

Citing Canada’s precedence of boycotting the Moscow Games in 1980, he added that the repression of the Uyghurs and democracy in Hong Kong “should be enough for fair-minded countries to withdraw.”

His opinion towards the Chinese government regarding Chinese human rights abuses is echoed by another citizen, who applauds Bob Rae, the Canadian UN Ambassador, for mentioning the alleged genocide in the Xinjiang Province during a UN conference.

He adds that “Like-minded nations must stand up to the CCP and show our support for the Chinese people by supporting Taiwan and Hong Kong.”

Daughter-in-law of Former CCP's Senior Leader Asks Xi Jiping to Let her Return to the United States

On Christmas eve of 2020, an open letter was sent on Twitter to the Communist Chinese Party (#CCP) leader Xi Jiping, hoping that "the top leader of the country" could "help" the owner of the account and her daughter to leave China, so that she can reunite with her parents in the United States.

The account owner claimed to be the daughter-in-law of Zhou Yonghong, former state councillor and Party Secretariat of the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party who has been in jail for 5 years under accusations of bribery, abuse of power and intentionally disclosing state secrets.

Huang Wan, daughter-in-law of Zhou, said that in December 2013, her whole family was taken away. They then lived at home under surveillance for 10.5 months, and were held in the detention center for more than one year. She was “tortured and abused” by the Public Security system in Hubei, China. She was then sentenced to probation order and spent 3 years under the monitor of the judicial office until June 2019.

After that, she was restricted to leave the country by the Beijing Chaoyang People's Court due to a “civil complaint that has nothing to do with me [her]”. 18 months has already passed, and the case still has not been trialed. Huang suspected that the intention is to keep her in China.

Huang described that the past seven years “felt like hell”. Recently, she was ordered by the Chinese court to evict from her home in ten days.

Despite her US citizenship, she still could not go back to the US because of the Chinesecourt’s travel restriction. She said she felt totally helpless in China.
