I'd like to say that there is a strong ongoing support from the Canadian government in terms of the Tibet issue. His Holiness has been awarded an honorary citizenship. Also, on behalf of all the Tibetans, I'd like to say thank you to the Canadian government for also allowing Tibetans to reside in Canada and call it home. A few days ago, the foreign affairs committee actually signed a five-point agreement on the Tibet issue, and we'd like to thank you for that as well.
Up until now there have been about 99 self-immolators in Tibet, and I'd like to request that the Canadian government consider their hopes and aspirations and the reason these people have self-immolated. I also urge Parliament to actually issue a statement and also allow media inside Tibet to look into situations that are arising in Tibet and to force China to stop the repressive policy against Tibetan people in Tibet.
