#手足投稿
筆者係幾星期前通過咗聆訊、成功做難民嘅手足，今日終於收到信，confirm咗幾星期前我喺庭上聽到嘅結果，因此而家我可以講，亦想借呢個channel多謝我要多謝嘅人。
多謝加拿大政府，多謝佢提供庇護。
多謝Ray Wong，多謝佢幫我寫信。
多謝新香港文化協會，佢地教我點處理申請嘅行政野同文件。亦都喺我㥬惶時提供咗輔導同指引。
多謝保守黨嘅奧圖爾（Erin O'Toole）同埋佢嘅黨友為手足發聲，同埋一直以嚟喺政策方面撐手足同香港。等加拿大政府唔好向中共跪低。
多謝Hong Kong Watch一直喺寰球層面促成各國政府合作，令到手足喺流亡過程唔會受惡勢力阻撓。
最最需要多謝嘅係喺香港奮戰嘅兄弟，因為你們用屍體鋪出嚟嘅血路，打動到世界各國，我地先可以被加拿大收留。我地踏喺你地嘅屍體上，會繼續去行我地未行完嘅路。我地係食緊人血饅頭，只係呢啲血我地有份流咁解。
承諾用自己屍體繼續鋪路呢啲野我唔敢講，更唔會講OMDB乜乜乜，我只希望多啲人過紅海，走到流奶與蜜之地。香港最重要嘅係香港人，你地死晒就無。
筆者唔想做許智峯，因此唔會透露半點關於自己嘅背景，唯一可以講嘅係，由2014開始，我已經唱緊天有光。

2021年剛剛開始, 已見到國際政治一片紛亂, 我們應預視到前路必定非常艱辛。
幸好, 這一年多來, 我們結識了一班同路人, 有義工, 流亡手足, 家長和其他抗爭同盟等互相扶持。雖然我們心知香港局勢只會越來越差, 但正如Malcolm X 所說 : 「沒有什麼比逆境更好, 每次失敗、每次心碎、每次失落, 都包含著它們的種子、 它們的教訓, 能令下一次的表現有所進步。」
除非大家決定投降, 任由極權宰割, 不然, 更激烈的抗爭必定會再次出現, 我們希望各位能夠放下分歧和以往恩怨, 共同對抗暴政。不要讓現在身陷牢獄、流亡海外、甚至賠上生命的手足白白犧牲!
重修法治，還政於民；寧為飛灰, 不作浮塵！

📜 聲明：11人因涉嫌協助12港人被捕
今早11人因涉嫌「協助罪犯」被警方以《港版國安法》拘捕，據悉與現仍被囚於深圳的12港人有關。被捕人士當中包括現任區議員黃國桐律師、獨立音樂人霍朗齊以及一名烏克蘭人。
香港監察總監羅傑斯對於是次搜捕表示：「北京政府無疑正進一步利用《港版國安法》令異見人士噤聲，近期的濫捕和打壓都證明相關法例並非如北京所言只適用於直接危害國家安全的案例。以12港人案為例，這與所謂國家安全全然沒有關係。
我們再次促請國際社會一同譴責是次搜捕並儘快採取實質措施制裁中共政權。」
📜 Statement：In response to the arrest of 11 individuals
"This latest crackdown makes a mockery of previous claims that the National Security Law would be used sparingly and be applied only to cases with a direct and imminent threat to security"
Today 11 individuals were arrested in Hong Kong under the National Security Law for allegedly helping the 12 Hong Kong youths currently detained in Shenzhen flee Hong Kong.
The group of individuals arrests for “assisting criminals”, include 8 males and 3 females between the ages of 18-72. Among them is the lawyer and current District Councilor Wong Kwok-hung, independent musician Fok Long-chai, and a Ukrainian national.
A source within the National Security Department said that the 11 individuals were accused of sponsoring the fugitives’ attempt to abscond, with the level of funds offered by each of them ranging from a few thousand Hong Kong dollars to tens of thousands. They also are accused of providing “assistance such as introducing middle men to the fugitives, arranging shoreline pickups and providing hiding locations.”
Commenting on the arrests, Hong Kong Watch’s Chief Executive, Benedict Rogers said:
“Today has brought more arrests under the National Security Law and a further crackdown in Hong Kong. Increasingly it is clear that Beijing intends to use this draconian law as a blunt tool to crush dissent, where the hiring of a boat, the providing of accommodation, and the offering of free legal advice is now punishable to a minimum of ten years in prison.
This latest crackdown makes a mockery of previous claims that the draconian National Security Law would be used sparingly and be applied only to cases with a direct and imminent threat to security. The case of the 12 Hong Kong youths who languish in a jail in Shenzhen has never had anything to do with national security.
There is also reason to believe that the evidence against the 11 individuals arrested today has been extracted from the 12 Hong Kong youths detained in Shenzhen through mistreatment and even torture.
We urge the international community to condemn these arrests and urgently move to adopt punitive measures, including Magnitsky sanctions, in the face of what has become regular crackdowns and assaults on Hong Kong’s freedom, democracy, and way of life.”

🇨🇦🇺🇳 香港監察敦促聯合國指派特使並促請加國擴大「救生艇計劃」幫助香港抗爭者
《港版國安法》陰霾之下越來越多香港抗爭者急需到異鄉暫避。香港監察共同創辦人 Aileen Calverley 於接受加拿大報章 The Star 訪問時敦促加國政府擴大「救生艇計劃」覆蓋範圍，為更多遭受政治打壓的香港抗爭者提供安身之處。
「香港作為一個國際金融中心，齊聚了來自世界各國的投資及資源，只有確保香港的自由和自治才能夠保障各國自身的經濟利益。
加拿大不可能憑一己之力推動中國作出改變。尤其是在得到兩位加拿大公民 Michael Kovrig 和 Michael Spavor（Two Michaels）被囚的經驗後，加拿大政府將更願意與其他自由世界的盟友合作。
然而，譴責聲明等等並不足以令香港抗爭者得以真切的幫助。加拿大政府需要採取實際行動。」
她亦提到希望聯合國可以派遣特使監察香港的人權狀況，並為仍身處香港但希望申請政治庇護的抗爭者認證其國際難民地位。
🇨🇦🇺🇳 Hong Kong Watch calls for U.N. envoy and the Canadian Government to expand “Lifeboat Scheme”
Hong Kong Watch co-founder Aileen Calverley urges the Canadian government to expand its newly-introduced “lifeboat policy” to cover vulnerable Hong Kong pro-democracy protesters.
/ / Just in January, Hong Kong authorities arrested 55 pro-democracy activists in a mass sweep, accusing them of taking part in an unlawful primary election last July in an attempt to paralyze the legislature and subvert state power.
The global response to the developments in Hong Kong hasn’t emerged unprompted. It was a result of the deliberate effort of Hong Kong Watch, a London-based advocacy group concerned about the human rights conditions in the former British colony.
Founded in 2017, the group has worked with policymakers in the U.K., the U.S., European Union and Canada, where it is instrumental in pushing for legislation to sanction China and Hong Kong, as well as policies to accommodate the exodus of activists from Hong Kong.
“Hong Kong is an international financial centre. A lot of countries have financial interests there. To protect their own interests, they need to protect Hong Kong’s laws and freedoms,” says Aileen Calverley, a co-founder of Hong Kong Watch, who is a British and Canadian citizen.
“Only Canada by itself cannot get China to do anything. Ottawa is interested in a joint effort with other countries, especially after the two Michaels’ experience,” she added, referring to Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor, the two Canadians who have been held in China for two years since Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou’s arrest in Canada.
Calverley, who was born and raised in Hong Kong, says she would like to see a United Nations envoy investigate the human rights situation in Hong Kong and would like the international body to designate special refugee status to Hong Kong people for asylum abroad. (Under international law, individuals still remaining within their own country cannot be recognized as refugees.)
“It’s not good enough just to issue a statement without action. We need a rescue plan,” says Calverley, who hopes to launch her group’s Canadian branch in Ottawa later this year. / /

‘My heart is still with Hong Kong’: Activists in exile make lives in Canada, but many still live in fear
With Beijing tightening its grip on Hong Kong, pro-democracy and pro-independence activists have made their ways to Canada for asylum. In exile, they worry about their families back home and their own future here.
加拿大政府周四（二月四日）宣布，在該國大學畢業的香港學生下周起，可申請為期三年的工作簽證，然後申請永久居留。

甚麼是陰謀論？
根據一般人的用法，陰謀論是指在證據不足下認定一些事是事實，換句話說就是老屈。如果有朋友認為這個定義不對，至少本文說的陰謀論不是說你心目中的陰謀論。
既然陰謀論是指證據不足下認定一些事是事實，那麼一旦你說別人的是陰謀論，那麼你就必須拿出充足的證據，否則你說的便是陰謀論。
要用證據證據一件事，至少要有論點、論據，然後加起來邏輯合理通順。事實上，很多說別人是陰謀論的人，並沒有提出論點、論據，只是說「這是陰謀論」，然後拒絕討論，因為已經有人fact check了。
這種思路，正是「問題—答案」式思路，找到「正確答案」便完成。一旦有人把「正確答案」塞給他，便拒絕思考。而這種思路，在考試制度盛行底下，其實是主流。
當社會上充斥著這類人的時候，只要掌握傳媒，將一些事實說是陰謀論，然後將一切證據說是偽造，便給出了正確答案，close file。
這並不是比誰有理據，討論事實，而是比哪個「事實」較多人說，較多人認受。這是將一件事說一千遍就變成事實。
只要說A是個騙子一千遍，利用傳媒力量日日講，Ａ就是騙子，他說的都是陰謀論，然後沒人再聽他說。只要說藍潔璊是癲，然後藍潔璊就只能是癲，無公司敢找她工作，然後到她死後又悼念她來消費。
這就是傳媒力量和個人力量的差距。個人力量只能能達到願意分析的人的耳中，而傳媒力量則是即使你關掉收音機你也會聽到街邊電視在播。
本世紀最大的陰謀論，就是說別人的論調是陰謀論，連唯一討論的空間都扼殺。

既然陰謀論是指證據不足下認定一些事是事實，那麼一旦你說別人的是陰謀論，那麼你就必須拿出充足的證據，否則你說的便是陰謀論。
要用證據證據一件事，至少要有論點、論據，然後加起來邏輯合理通順。事實上，很多說別人是陰謀論的人，並沒有提出論點、論據，只是說「這是陰謀論」，然後拒絕討論，因為已經有人fact check了。
這種思路，正是「問題—答案」式思路，找到「正確答案」便完成。一旦有人把「正確答案」塞給他，便拒絕思考。而這種思路，在考試制度盛行底下，其實是主流。
當社會上充斥著這類人的時候，只要掌握傳媒，將一些事實說是陰謀論，然後將一切證據說是偽造，便給出了正確答案，close file。
這並不是比誰有理據，討論事實，而是比哪個「事實」較多人說，較多人認受。這是將一件事說一千遍就變成事實。
只要說A是個騙子一千遍，利用傳媒力量日日講，Ａ就是騙子，他說的都是陰謀論，然後沒人再聽他說。只要說藍潔璊是癲，然後藍潔璊就只能是癲，無公司敢找她工作，然後到她死後又悼念她來消費。
這就是傳媒力量和個人力量的差距。個人力量只能能達到願意分析的人的耳中，而傳媒力量則是即使你關掉收音機你也會聽到街邊電視在播。
本世紀最大的陰謀論，就是說別人的論調是陰謀論，連唯一討論的空間都扼殺。
Mainland China has abandoned the Sino-British Joint Declaration that had guaranteed democratic rights and free speech to Hong Kong’s 7.5 million residents. Beijing does not recognize these inalienable human rights and is undermining or outright cancelling them in Hong Kong.
中國背棄了《中英聯合聲明》，以及聲明中保障香港750萬名居民的民主權利和言論自由的承諾。北京不單不承認這些不可被剝奪的人權，更在香港逐漸或直接地剝奪這些權利。
Now, China’s Communist Party is demanding, through its territorial government, that Hong Kong Canadians abandon ties with either the Special Administrative Region or with Canada. The Communist Party apparatchiks are counting on Canada to abandon our citizens.
現在，中國共產黨又通過香港政府要求居港加國公民選擇放棄與加拿大或香港的聯繫。中共此舉無疑等同要加拿大放棄我們的公民。
This is another heavy-handed attempt by Beijing to strip basic rights. It is a deplorable move by an undemocratic totalitarian regime.
這是北京強硬企圖剝奪基本權利的又一事例，一個不民主的極權政府極其惡劣的舉動。
The ramifications are massive and include the denial of mobility rights to leave Hong Kong as well as the loss of representation by the Government of Canada – including consular access.
I, along with other Canadians, and friends of Hong Kong, call on the Government of Canada to:
我聯同其他加國公民和與香港同行的朋友，向加拿大政府提出以下訴求：
(1) Protect the rights of our citizens by informing Beijing that the mobility rights of Hong Kong Canadians are non-negotiable and sacrosanct.
保障加國公民的權利，清楚向北京表達居港加國公民的遷徙及出入境權不容侵犯的原則；
(2) Quickly open a path to Canadian citizenship for family members of Canadian citizens in Hong Kong.
盡快設立相關機制，為居港加國公民的家庭成員提供移居加拿大的途徑；
(3) Offer a three-year working visa with a path to citizenship for Hong Kong students completing an accredited study program in Canada.
為於加拿大完成認可課程的香港學生提供為期三年的工作簽證，以及入藉的機會；
(4) Expedite asylum claims made by Hong Kong people involved in the pro‐democracy movement.
加快處理香港民主運動抗爭者提出的庇護申請；
其衍生結果將為居港加國公民帶來極大影響，包括被剝奪離開香港的出入境權利，以及失去加拿大政府的代表權，導致他們失去領事保護權。
(5) Work with the United Kingdom, United States, France, Australia, New Zealand and other democracies to protect the fundamental and inviolable rights of all dual-national citizens living in Hong Kong.
與英國、美國、法國、澳洲、新西蘭及其他民主國家合作，保障所有持雙重國藉居港的國民的基本權利不被侵犯。
For many generations, Hong Kong has accepted migrants and refugees from mainland China and elsewhere in Asia who were seeking freedoms and a better life. Today, the Hong Kong people are seeking assistance from other democracies. Canada must stand with them.
數代之久，香港接納了無數來自中國和其他亞洲地區，為追求民主自由和更美好生活的移民和難民。今天，香港人正在尋求其他民主國家的幫助。 加拿大必須與香港人同行。
Please sign the petition to the House of Commons, Parliament of Canada:
請簽署以下聲明予加拿大國會下議院：
I stand with a free Hong Kong and call on the Canadian government to protect the rights of Canadians living in the territory.
我與香港同行，並呼籲加拿大政府保障居港加拿大公民的權利。
