Communist Canad'uh Deports Immigrant To Her Death
Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Xiaoping Hu was deported to China on August 5,
despite protests from thousands of Canadians, NGOs and Members of
Parliament.
"Our government has not lived up to its responsibility. .Anyone who faces a
risk of human rights abuses in China should be protected from that fate, not
cavalierly sent back to harm.", wrote Mr. Alex Neve, secretary general of
Amnesty International of Canada, in his statement regarding the deportation.
Falun Gong supporters gathered in front of the offices of the Minister of
Public Safety Anne McLellan and Minister of Immigration Joe Volpe on August
9 to express their despair and indignation over what they consider a "tragic
deportation of their fellow practitioner," according to a Falun Dafa
Association of Canada (FDAC) press statement. They were also dismayed that
it took the government three days to make their decision known.
There is strong concern that Ms. Hu may suffer a similar fate to Canadian
art professor Kunlun Zhang. Despite being a Canadian citizen, Mr. Zhang's
adherence to Falun Gong resulted in Chinese authorities sentencing him to
three years in a forced labour camp while he was visiting China in 2000. He
was rescued back to Canada in 2001, but not before being severely tortured
with an electric baton. He was also forced to denounce his beliefs, and then
to thank his torturers on camera, leaving him with a feeling "worse than
death."
There are other strong precedents for fearing for Ms. Hu's safety. In a
similar case last March, Mr. Jiang Renzheng and his family were sent back to
China from Germany because the German refugee board did not consider them to
be at risk. One month after arriving in China, Mr. Jiang was taken from his
in-laws' home and sentenced to three years of forced labour, leaving his
wife and two young children behind.
"We are at a sad loss to comprehend our government's actions today", said
Xun Li, president of the FDAC, "We ask our Canadian government to take
responsibility for monitoring and ensuring Ms. Hu's safety in China."
Prior to her arrival in Canada, Ms. Hu had already been detained in a
brainwashing centre in China, and like Mr. Zhang, was forced into renouncing
her beliefs. It is clear that she is already well known to Chinese
authorities. Also, like Mr. Zhang, she joined more than 200,000 people who
have written in to the Clearwisdom.net website to rescind such "conversions"
extracted under pressure.
"The determination by the Martin government that a Falun Gong practitioner
returned to China is not at risk is precisely analogous to a statement in
1938 that a Jew sent back to Nazi Germany would not be at risk," said
Attorney Clive Ansley, a Vancouver Island-based expert on Chinese legal
issues.
For Ms. Hu there is another factor that makes her return to China dangerous.
While in Canada, she publicly declared her withdrawal from the Chinese
Communist Party. According to Hao Fengjun, the former officer of the
Gestapo-like "610 Office" who defected to Australia in June, the CCP is
tracking down and persecuting anyone who openly quits the party.

With the gun related crimes data base showing that the source of guns
used in crimes in Canada coming from the US, perhaps anyone trying to
smuggle a gun in their motorhome on a trip through Canada to Alaska
should be identified immediately as a terrorist and flown involuntarily
to a Cuban
jail, with info to his government provided to him after he's gone. Of
course, this would not happen in a democracy with checks and balances
and
a constitution would it?

why dont you compare apples to apples? If you're an American
and get caught smuggling guns into Canada you "will" be in a world of
hurt. How Cuba comes into your mind is beyond me. In the original
post the person's home of record was Syria. So send him back. What's
it going to take for you bleeding hearts to quit worrying about
"foreigners"
rights? Maybe a couple hundred pounds of a major toxin in a major
citys water supply, or maybe a dirty nuke in a major city???
He is and was a Canadian citizen. His 'home of record' was in Canada.
Canada treats all citizens equally, whether born here or naturalized. I
thought America did too. Cuba is a reasonable comparison for Americans,
or
you can suggest another if you like, Chile under Pinochet would have been
good.
The world of hurt for an American bringing a gun to Canada is a $3-400
fine
at present at max, with an opportunity to mail it home in many cases and
no
consequence unless he's got a carload.
What's this about toxins in water supplies and dirty nukes? Why don't you
compare apples to apples?
