Our Voice Joins Together, Our Hearts As One...

We can first step forward as individuals and expose the illegal acitivity from its source. In order to reinforce our foreign policy, we as citizens need to join together with on heart to protect the values and culture that we as Canadians already have. Under Jiang's communist regime in China, where human rights and freedoms are not an individual's choice, we as Canadians can stand to lead the way for their freedom. We first need to stand by our own policies and make sure that it is not infringed upon by those scoundrels trying to make their way into our country and taking advantage of being protected under a consulate's/embassy's roof so to say.

Our government can take a leading role by exposing such illegal activity by Chinese Consulates & Embassies throughout our country. Treating it as a gap in our internal security that needs to be overlooked.

Our foreing policy can counteract these effects by having information available for foreign visitors and immigrants (especially those from China), about the truth of the atrocities, lies, and deception that their governing leader/'s have lead them through. For example, the truth of the mass genocide on innocent Falun Gong practitioners for the past 4 years. Any standard below this would be withholding crutial evidence and information from deserving citizens who have been deceived by the State-controlled propaganda machine. On top of the mass murder of Tibetan Monks, the 1989 bloody massacre of students in Tiananmen Square, to most recently the SARS outbreak that originated in China that was held for 4 months by the regime's leader/'s. An article in Time Magazine titled "A Tale of Two Countries - A TIME investigation into what went wrong in China and Canada by Romesh Ratnesar and Hannah Beech states:

"News of a widespread Shanghai cover-up would further devastate the credibility of the national government and perhaps threaten the political future of China's new President, Hu Jintao. Until its attempts to come clean last week on the situation in the capital, the Hu government's approach to dealing with SARS had been both craven and ineffectual. After the disease surfaced in China's southern Guangdong province in November, party leaders quashed media reports about its existence, fearing the public would stay home during the Chinese New Year holiday rather than spend money that could spur the economy. By early March, when the government convened the National People's Congress to inaugurate a new slate of senior leaders, doctors and members of China's state-controlled media say they knew about the growing crisis but were prevented from reporting it. "We had stories ready to run," says a journalist in Guangdong. "But before the Congress, we couldn't publish them, and after the Congress, the government didn't want to alarm the people."

These lies and bloody atrocities have a track record and has proven fatal to the international community and citizens of our world. Canada knows of this, and can take the first step forward to place "Jiang's Regime" in International Courts for the crimes of genocide they have been committing against their very own citizens, and now, the people of our world!
