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

🇨🇦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.”
