Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  First, I must make a comment on what has been said. I imagine that all the members have seen what happened in Auschwitz. You can see hair on display in the museums there. As Ms. Mahmut just said, it is really horrible. There are 13 tonnes of Uyghur hair.

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  In short, I have learned a lot about the issue you raised. Our export deficit to China is now $40 billion. How many of your constituents are unemployed because of it? The Americans and the Europeans have eliminated a lot of jobs. I hope Mr. Zenz and the other witnesses will ta

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  I didn't quite understand your question.

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  We have applied the Magnitsky act to people in Venezuela and many other countries, but we haven't, oddly enough, applied it to a single person in China. As a result of what we have been talking about today, it seems that we have no right to apply the Magnitsky act to people in th

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair, distinguished members. Dr. Mahmut speaks perfect French, so you're welcome to speak to her in French. I'll be very short. I will just say that last December in Brussels at an event sponsored by the World Uyghur Congress, I made the point that forced organ

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  It's about that thick.

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  It takes 20 minutes to download the PDF, but we of course will do it.

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  A number of Falun Gong practitioners have managed to get out of these camps and out of China. We've talked to them. Some of them are in Toronto, I believe. You can talk to them and hear stories that just make you sick. They have family members. That's why you have placards all

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  Mr. Chairman, I didn't mean to make fun of you. I used to have your job a long time ago, as you mentioned. You're doing a great job. Taiwan is a fascinating case. There's a lot of hepatitis in Taiwan, as you probably know, and a lot of people from Taiwan I think used to go to Ch

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  He's cutting you off.

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  Thank goodness the number of executions in China is starting to go down, but the problem is that as the executions go down—and they have to be done within seven days, as David mentioned—the demand for organs from prisoners of conscience who have no hearing, no appeal, nothing— T

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  Can we both have a go at that? Nothing is effectively being done. As you know, China has a veto in the UN, but some of the committees of the UN have.... The UN Committee Against Torture, which is a group of non-UN employees, experts, has been very helpful. The UN rapporteur on t

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  It's a very good question. We are strongly in favour, as I am sure all of you are, of encouraging voluntary donation. What Israel did when they stopped people from going to China was to say that if someone signed a card giving a donation, they would have priority for donations if

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  We run into this all the time. People say, “What about someone who got a kidney in country X?” This happens, and I'm sure you know it happens. You sell one kidney hoping you can get your child through university or something, but there's only one country in the world where it's s

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  By the way, the 610 Office comes from June 10, and that's why they call it the 610 Office. It's all over China. There's an office in Hong Kong, actually, too, which we encountered when we were there. They were trying to disrupt our meeting. I can maybe drive it home with an examp
