(Clearwisdom.net) Central News Agency reported on September 26, 2006
that Falun Gong practitioners from Ottawa, Montreal and other places rallied in
Parliament Hill in Ottawa, calling on the Canadian government and people to
combine efforts to stop the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) crimes of harvesting
organs from living Falun Gong practitioners. MPs including Irwin Cotler came to
voice their support.
Reuven Bulka, Chairman of the Organ Donation Committee of the Eastern Ontario
Kidney Foundation made a speech at the rally, condemning the CCP's inhumane
behavior.
Bulka expressed that the CCP's harvesting organs from living Falun Gong
practitioners is "a human-rights breach of the worst order, and demands a
response on the international level commensurate with the monstrous evil."
"Governments must raise their collective voices in disgust at this, and
condemn it in uncompromising terms. The traffic flow to China for these
"procedures" needs to be stopped."
Bulka said that governments should look at the propriety of any trade with
China, and individuals should think about the morality of buying items that are
made in China until this stops, with finality and with proof of same. He said
that the Olympics is the last stop in this process. That is a few years away,
and the situation demands immediate and strong attention.
This past May, Canadian veteran MP David Kilgour and human rights lawyer
David Matas launched an independent investigation regarding the allegation on
the CCP harvesting organs from living Falun Gong practitioners. The Kilgour/Matas
investigation team met with many victims and witnesses, conducting in-depth
research. The two investigators published a report of their investigation on
July 6 in Ottawa. Assessing eighteen different kinds of evidence, they
concluded, "There has been and continues today to be large scale organ
seizures from unwilling Falun Gong practitioners."
