Free to be Happy and Secure in China

 

"In the opinion of the House, the People's Republic of China has engaged in actions consistent with the United Nations General Assembly Resolution 260, commonly known as the 'Genocide Convention', including detention camps and measures intended to prevent births as it pertains to Uyghurs and other Turkic Muslims".
Conservative motion, House of Commons, Ottawa

"[I was] deeply disturbed by horrific reports of human rights violations in Xinjiang, including the use of arbitrary detention, political re-education, forced labour, torture, and forced sterilization."
"We have the responsibility to work with others in the international community in ensuring that any such allegations are investigated by an independent international body of legal experts."
Foreign Affairs Minister Marc Garneau, Ottawa

"Based on the evidence put forward during the subcommittee hearings, both in 2018 and 2020, the subcommittee is persuaded that the actions of the Chinese Communist Party constitute genocide as laid out in the Genocide Convention."
Parliamentary Subcommittee on International Human Rights, Ottawa

There, it's done. Elected members of Parliament representing all official parties voted unanimously to declare China an absolute human rights abuser, a genocidal government in Beijing, intent on transforming minority Muslim Uyghurs into Han Chinese citizens; their religion denied, culture denied, language denied; separatist aspirations denied, through an institutionalized disappearance of all that it means to be ethnic Muslim Uyghurs in an irreligious ideology of totalitarian Communism.

Unofficially, that is. In the sense that it wasn't the entire government of Canada that committed itself to that declaration. The sad and sorry fact is that the Cabinet of Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau chose to separate themselves from all other Parliamentarians' decision to label the People's Republic for what it is; a genocidal regime that began with Tibet and now Xinjiang to complete its mission of one-for-all, and all-for-one-Xi Jinping idolatry.

While mouthing an opinion eerily similar to that of the convinced members of Parliament who voted 266 - 0 in support of the motion, Canada's minister of foreign affairs 'abstained' from the vote on behalf of the entire Liberal cabinet. Straddling the fence on China is a Liberal hallmark, after all. Absurdly enough, Canada's ambassador to the United Nations, Bob Rae has stated: "There's no question that there's aspects of what the Chinese are doing that fits into the definition of genocide in the Genocide Convention."

Foreign Minister Garneau's mention of an 'investigation by an independent international body of legal experts' points directly to the United Nations. Where it would be natural under any such circumstances for the Human Rights Council to have a good, hard look at China's ongoing discrimination against and deadly dehumanization of Falun Gong, Tibetans, Uyghurs, Kazakhs, Kyrgyz and Hui people -- if they weren't so busy condemning democratic Israel. 

Interestingly enough, China sits on the UNHRC, alongside Russia, Cuba and Pakistan, all stalwarts of human rights support as it pertains to other countries; certainly not their own. Chinese foreign Minister Wang Yi appeared at the UNHRC's 46th session where he proffered out of the goodness of his heart, insight into China's perception of human rights. Where in China "happiness" and"security" are synonymous with China's drive to see its entire population reduced to CCP-supporting zombies.

They will attain happiness and a sense of comforting security by the simple expedient of abandoning the evils of  free thought, free speech, freedom of religion, where "terrorism and separatism" are unequivocally universally condemned by all the people of the People's Republic of China which exists solely to represent the very best interests of its happy population, free to do as they are instructed.

A motion passed by the House of Commons today calls on the government to lobby for relocation of the games out of China due to the country's human rights record.
