Dear kind Canadian politicians and all members of parliament
CC: Dear cruel torturers
This text is to draw your attention to the following questions and related issues:
1) Does ongoing torture make Canada economy more prosperous?
2) Does ongoing torture make Canadian society more stable?
3) Does ongoing torture help Canada win more diplomatic victories?
You, kind Canadian politicians, are very clear about the importance of the above questions. Of course, all of you know these answers. Meantime, you must also know what those torturers have brought about for Canada. The consequences are obvious and serious from the reactions or responses from all over the world.( I don’t have to list the details regarding what they have stated in here):
1) UN Committee Against Torture
2) Amnesty International
3) Joint statement by Human Rights Watch and UN Human Rights Council
4) IRCT
5) World Without Torture
6) International Criminal Court
Dear kind Canadian politicians, maybe some of you are not happy with the above facts. Maybe, some of you can’t control over your temper after they all expressed their “serious concerns”. However, changing the way of thinking, if you were a victim of torture ,or if you were one of the above, what would you do after you know the truth about those atrocious acts of torture? Both OMCT and Nobel Laureates have stated: “Nothing can justify torture under any circumstances.” So, back to the table at which I/we have been sitting all the time, let’s find some ways to deal with this serious torture case with your wisdom, courage and insight. Do we have other options? The earth spins; The world changes; People watches; People listens. No one can stop them.
Christmas is around the corner. May God bless Canada. Have a happy holiday.
Best regards,
Robin Yan
