The Vancouver Society in Support of Democratic Movement signed an open letter and to stand with members of the Canadian Coalition on Human Rights in China.

“We wish to express our deep concern regarding Prime Minister Carney’s forthcoming visit to China,” a statement reads

At a time of escalating human rights abuses and transnational repression, we believe it is imperative that Canada’s highest political leadership place human rights at the forefront of all high-level engagement with the Chinese government.

Canadian PM Mark Carney is on a state visit in China. Back in April, Mr. Carney said China is the largest threats with respect to foreign interference in Canada and is an emerging threat in the Arctic.

    “I wonder how much of this social media push is astroturfing” posted in response to a propaganda account lol. Not poking fun at you at all, but just look at the posting history of the account you’re responding to.
