In the 100th year of Chinese Communist Party, the land has been bloody, truth is filthy, all of us are angry!
On 1st of July, 2021, the 100th anniversary of CCP, Tibet, East Turkistan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Vietnam, Myanmar, Han and local Canadians join together, and chastise Xi Jinping’s mother! We shall meet at 12:00 at Grange Park, and rally to Red China’s Consulate. As a member of Five Eyes, as well as NATO and G7, Canada is the pioneer of the free world. Itis inappropriate for Canada to get on with Red China, the dictatorship government who has been supressing the freedom of speech, massacring the people living on the land they had invaded.
This activity is cross race and cross community, which shows our solidarity to give pressure to our government. We urge Canada to have back bone, stand up to the dictatorship and defend our core values!
We also want to urge Canada to boycott the Winter Olympics, to show that the free world will say no to the Red China!
We anticipate People Republic of China to be overthrown in the near future, Chinese Communist Party coming to an end and their members facing the punishment of justice.
中共百年、血染神州，顛倒是非，人神共憤！
2021年7月1日，適逢中國共產黨建黨100年，西藏、東突厥、香港、台灣、越南、緬甸、漢族，以及加拿大本地人聚首一堂，齊齊為中共贈慶。我等先在12:00於格蘭奇公園（Grange Park）聚義，再齊齊操往中國領事館，問候習近平娘親！加拿大身為北約成員國、五眼聯盟國、G7成員，是自由世界的翹楚，絕無可能與扼殺言論自由、滿手血腥的中共為伍。是次聚義跨越不同種族、不同社區，彼此之間不割蓆不分化，顯示我等齊心向加拿大政府施壓，要求加拿大挺直腰骨，捍衞加拿大核心價值，向極權說不！
我眾亦藉著是次活動，要求加拿大杯葛赤色政權主辦的冬奧，以示自由社會絕不妥協！
天滅中共！祝中國共產黨早日亡黨滅國，黨員受到應得懲罰！

【加拿大華裔參議員胡元豹 附和中國批評加拿大人權狀況】
【「加拿大也做過中國對維吾爾人的行為」】
加拿大參議員胡元豹 (Yuen Pau Woo) 當地時間周一（28日）在上議院表示，加拿大就新疆人權議題對中方作出的譴責純屬「標籤」。他呼籲加拿大反以自身「原住民政策」歷史與中方積極對話，協助中國成為「多元民族」的國家。
上議院周一審議由保守派提出有關新疆議案，建議加拿大「承認中國正對維吾爾人和其他突厥裔穆斯林進行種族滅絕」。胡元豹反對議案時形容，其實加拿大在歷史上對原住民，又或甚對現在的新移民和少數社群等，做過類似中國對維吾爾人的行為。他認為，該議案將製造無益的「題外話」，影響加中關係。
胡元豹表示，雖然自己比起權威主義更崇尚民主體制，但也不能扼殺中國政府在「正當性」方面的獨有體制。他引述民主聯盟基金會的調查，發現7成中國受訪者認同國家是民主的，高於加拿大、印度和美國的調查結果。他認為，中加對自由的定義不同，但不能作為教導教訓中國統治藉口。
該議案周二（29日）以29:33 遭大比數否決。
胡元豹1963年出生於馬來西亞，在新加坡長大，2016年被加拿大總理杜魯多任命為參議院的獨立參議員。

📣🇨🇦加拿大兩黨四位議員加入香港監察成為贊助人
香港監察很榮幸地宣佈，除了前加國亞太事務國務部長Hon. David Kilgor及保守黨國會議員Garnett Genuis外，再有四位跨黨派的加拿大議員政要加入 #香港監察 成為我們的贊助人。
新加入香港監察的加拿大贊助人包括：
🇨🇦 Irwin Cotler —— 前加拿大司法部長、瓦倫貝里人權研究所主席：「北京持續打壓香港的新聞自由、民主運動及自由民主等核心價值，香港監察的工作更顯重要。我們有責任與香港人同行，捍衛國際協議中的承諾以及我們都堅信的普世價值。」
🇨🇦 參議院議員Jim Munson —— 加拿大參議院議員、前加拿大參議院人權委員會主席、前加拿大參議院自由政黨會議黨鞭：「我們必須為被剝奪言論自由、結社自由、新聞自由及基本選舉權利的人民發聲 —— 人權是普世價值。」
🇨🇦 參議院議員Leo Housakos —— 加拿大參議院保守黨議員、前加拿大參議院議長、參議院外交事務委員會成員：「過去數年我們見證了香港的自由民主被逐步消滅，香港監察對中共的施壓以及於國會、學界及媒體空間的倡議工作十分重要。
作為參與其中的議員，我很榮幸可以成為香港監察的贊助人之一，並將繼續堅定支持他們的工作。」
🇨🇦 國會議員James Bezan
加拿大保守黨國會議員、影子國防大臣、國會國防委員會副主席

🇨🇦Hong Kong Watch Canada —— 4 new Canadian Patrons has joined Hong Kong Watch
Today, Hong Kong Watch Canada is pleased to announce that several prominent parliamentarians have agreed to become Patrons. This includes Canada’s former Justice Minister and Attorney General Irwin Cotler, who chairs the Raoul Wallenberg Centre for Human Rights, Senator Jim Munson, former Whip of the Senate Liberal Caucus and former Chair of the Senate Human Rights Committee, Senator Leo Housakos, former Speaker of the Senate and a member of the Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs and James Bezan MP, Shadow Minister for National Defence and Vice Chair of the Standing Committee on National Defence.
They join Canada’s former Secretary of State for Asia-Pacific David Kilgour and Shadow Minister for International Development and Human Rights Garnett Genuis MP who are also Patrons of Hong Kong Watch. The organisation has engaged actively in advocacy in Ottawa over the past three years and is now in the process of establishing a branch to further enhance our presence in Canada.
Commenting on their appointment as Patrons, Hong Kong Watch’s co-founder and Chief Executive Benedict Rogers said:
“We are absolutely delighted to be able to expand our board of Patrons in Canada, and to be joined by such distinguished figures who enhance our bi-partisan and global reach as an international organisation working for the basic freedoms, human rights, rule of law and autonomy of the people of Hong Kong.”
Hong Kong Watch Canada Patron, Irwin Cotler said:
“Hong Kong Watch is needed now more than ever given Beijing's assault not only on media freedom - and the democracy movement - but democracy itself in Hong Kong. We have a responsibility to stand in solidarity with the people of Hong Kong in defense of our international treaty obligations and the protection of human rights and human dignity.”
Hong Kong Watch Canada Patron, Senator Leo Housakos said:
“We have seen the erosion of rule of law and human rights take a great toll on the people of Hong Kong over the past few years. The advocacy work of Hong Kong Watch has been vital in keeping pressure on the communist regime of China by bringing together parliamentarians, academics and media throughout the western world to call on their governments to take action.
As a parliamentarian who has been asked to be part of some of those efforts, I’m deeply honoured to now be named a Patron of HK Watch and as such, I pledge to continue to lend my unwavering support to their important work.”
Hong Kong Watch Canada Patron, Senator Jim Munson said:
“We must always speak up for those who have been denied the right of free speech, freedom of association, a free press and the basic right of voting in free and fair elections. Human Rights are universal rights.”

【加拿大七一活動】
琴日七月一號，加拿大有海外港人組織分別於卡加利以及多倫多聯同藏人、維吾爾人等各民族發起遊行、集會，共同譴責中共一百年來對其他民族嘅壓迫。
同時本次集會亦希望藉此向加拿大政府施壓，另加拿大政府能夠捍衛加拿大核心價值，拒絕向極權妥協亦希望加拿大能夠杯葛中共主辦嘅冬季奧運會，以示對極權嘅不滿。

【我哋想創造一個所有人都可以學到廣東話嘅世界】
細細個學英文嗰陣，好多人都用啲五顏六色嘅故事書，叫做 Graded Readers。佢哋入面啲英文有分難度嘅，有啲色就淺啲，有啲色就深啲。學英文嘅人可以循序漸進，慢慢掌握生詞，睇呢啲故仔書學英文，肯定好過喺學校抄字多多聲。我成日都諗，如果有呢種書俾人學廣東話，大家一定可以學得快好多啫！但係有呢個諗法嗰時，香港係連粵語寫嘅兒童書都冇。
香港明明有九成人係講粵語，點解啲兒童書同日常口語脫晒節嘅？我諗起一本叫 We’re going on a bear hunt 嘅書。本書喺英文世界好出名，係講一家人去森林打獵捉熊人嘅故事，我好鍾意個故仔，好鍾意個節奏。世界各國嘅小朋友，睇住英文版或者自己語言嘅譯本，父母可以唱或者讀出嚟，而小朋友會聽得明。英文版係噉樣嘅：
We're going on a bear hunt. We're going to catch a big one. What a beautiful day. We're not scared.
啲字可以唱出嚟，講出嚟，帶節奏，有感情，細路聽得明。
中文版就係噉樣：
我們要去捉狗熊／要捉一隻大大的／天氣這麼好／沒甚麼好怕的
講普通話嘅人，你照讀出嚟，啲細路會聽得好開心。但係講粵語嘅小朋友呢？佢哋都係睇住同一個中文版。但係讀落繞口，聽到耍手擰頭。喺聽繪本嘅故事嘅年紀，佢哋係唔會識呢啲日常唔用嘅詞㗎。咩叫「狗熊」？咩叫「這麼好」？同佢哋聽開嘅嘢唔同，讀出嚟唱出嚟，佢哋都一頭霧水。兒童文學用粵語寫，如果寫做噉：
我哋去捉熊人／要捉隻大隻嘅熊人／今日天氣咁好／唔會驚到震
大人細路都聽得明，你話係咪好好多呢？
我哋想教識小朋友對世界好奇，要用小朋友睇得明聽得明嘅語言文字，等佢哋可以用母語打通世界；要教識外地人，教識海外嘅第二代粵語人，亦都需要一啲用粵語寫嘅嘢，而唔係去學一堆「這」「那」「了」「的」「吧」，唔係學啲喺粵語區永遠都用唔到嘅北方話、普通話俚語。總之用粵語寫嘅書真係好緊要。
粵語唔單只唔會死，仲要永續發展。我哋深信香港嘅文化一定會吸引到世界各地嘅人都一齊學粵語。但係我哋唔想個個淨係識得用粵語講粗口，淨係用嚟應付生活。我哋要好多好多書，要有內涵嘅書！
最早嘅諗法只係翻譯外文故事。但係諗落我哋覺得，粵語應該係有自己嘅文學，應該要做一隻不斷創新嘅語言，一隻有原創作品嘅語言。於是我哋決定唔應該細做，唔應該就噉翻譯，要做返咁上下規模。而我哋定嘅目標係一千個故事。
一千。壹仟。１０００。jat1 cin1。One Thousand。
我哋知道呢個係一個好癲嘅計劃。但係喺過去一年半，我哋踏出咗第一步，整好咗一百個故仔，準備喺書展推出其中四十本書。我哋相信之後我哋做大個餅之後，令到大家周圍都見到粵文書。可以做到呢度，全靠每一個支持我哋嘅人，信任我哋嘅參加者。
我哋係冚唪唥。記住我哋個名，書展見！
