Liberals, Conservatives and New Democrats are on the move in advance of a potential election this year, recruiting candidates, training volunteers and grappling with how to kiss babies and press the flesh in a virtual, pandemic-restricted world.

The uncertainty of COVID-19 has left each party ravenously raising funds and wooing would-be nominees while suspended in a kind of limbo, forced to map out multiple scenarios for an election whose timing under a minority Liberal government remains unknown.

A symbolic motion recognising the genocide of Uyghurs in China passed in the House of Commons with a vote of 266-0 on Feb. 22. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the entire Liberal cabinet abstained from the vote.
Tabled by the Conservative Party, the motion stipulates that China has engaged in actions consistent with United Nations General Assembly Resolution 260, also known as the “Genocide Convention.” The motion called on the House of Commons to “recognize that a genocide is currently being carried out by the People’s Republic of China against Uyghurs and other Turkic Muslims.”
Global Protests Condemn Chinese Regime’s Abuses on Human Rights Day
Dec. 10 is International Human Rights Day. Western governments, civil groups, and citizens around the world took action to condemn the Chinese Communist regime’s human rights abuses.
On the occasion, the U.S. State Department announced sanctions on several human rights violators around the world, including a Chinese official, for his role in persecuting the spiritual practice Falun Gong.
Huang Yuanxiong is a police chief at the Wucun police station in Xiamen city, Fujian Province. The State Department said he detained and interrogated Falun Gong adherents for practicing their beliefs. The sanction, which would ban Huang from the United States, also applies to his spouse.
