“The words that you are reading right now could land me in prison for life.”

New op-ed by a #HongKong international student in the McMaster University campus paper, on how the HK #NationalSecurityLaw harms people, even here in Canada. 1/7

Maybe this is why we haven’t heard from Mark Carney if his govt has any plans to counter foreign (esp. from Chinese Communist Party 🇨🇳) interference & infiltration in Canada 🇨🇦.

Canadian voters & those who are interested in learning foreign interference in Canada, study this map carefully👇👇👇

Year after year, there is new evidence that students in Canada are being actively surveilled and threatened by agents and proxies of a hostile foreign state, yet no action is taken to protect us.

We reiterate our call for federal legislation NOW:

1/8 A year ago today, the McMaster Chinese Students & Scholars Assoc.(CSSA) failed to reverse our student union’s move to strip their club status.

Yet one year later, the federal gov’t STILL has not passed any laws against foreign interference in Canada…

This is the first time that it’s been publicly reported that Canadian intelligence services were looking at events with the McMaster University CSSA in 2019.

【中共霸凌香港的缩影】
在加拿大一所大学里，一名大陆留学生破坏连侬墙，并对香港留学生动粗。在加拿大享有言论自由时，该名大陆留学生认为自己亦有“打人的权利”。

Canada is on track to face its worst-ever year of wildfire destruction. Blazes are burning in nearly all Canadian provinces and territories, and federal government officials said their modeling shows increased wildfire risk in most of Canada through August https://t.co/QU7KK6eXkm

Using words like "modelling", & "season" tell us that the interventions are and will be inadequate. We have seen this before. This does not have to be this way.

[HK House | 香港屋 @HKHouseOfficial]

Many questioned why HK House is this naïve and continues to pour our energies and resources into an endeavour that costs us so much physically, emotionally and monetarily. Bringing HKer art and culture to the mainstream is incredibly difficult, but we still want to try.

A 24-year-old has plead guilty to #sedition in #HongKong & been sentenced to 5 months in prison for 196 posts—189 on LIHKG & 7 on Facebook, including sharing the URL of children’s books about sheep.
Now in all 28 convicted of sedition in HK, 0 acquitted.

[Climate Justice McMaster @CJusticeMAC]

Yesterday, on day 8 of our hunger strike, we decided to end the strike due to health concerns for the strikers.

This does not mean we are done.

We have seen so many moved to action to support this movement.

@McMasterU, this is not the end.

This is only the beginning.

[Climate Justice McMaster @CJusticeMAC]

Unless @McMasterU listens to students, faculty, and the Hamilton community...

Unless @McMasterU lives up to its responsibilities as a sustainable institution...

Do not come here.
Do not work here.
Do not donate here.

One of our sources speaks in an open letter to Canadians: " I was raised to believe that integrity is the act of weighing your actions against your principles, not against what is convenient or expedient."

Update from hunger strike, day 2!

Our strikers power on but will @McMasterU respond?
