of Justice and Attorney General of Canada, in support of the Lawsuit Against the
Ex-Chinese President. Mr. Louis said in his letter: "I urge you and your
government to now pursue justice and international protection on behalf of Falun
Gong practitioners." City of Vancouver November 10, 2004 The Honourable Irwin Cotler Dear Honourable Cotler: I write you in support of Falun Gong practitioners throughout
Canada, and their request for an investigation and prosecution of Jiang Zemin
and other Chinese officials under the Canadian Crimes Against Humanity and War
Crimes Act. I do so in light of the widespread violations of individual
human rights, acts of violence and persecution perpetrated against the
practitioners of Falun Gong within China. Given the horrifying facts substantiated by reports from the
United Nations, Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch, I urge you and
your government to now pursue justice and international protection on behalf of
Falun Gong practitioners. I look forward to your timely response to this most serious
matter. Sincerely, Tim Louis |
