(Clearwisdom.net) On April 7, 2006, Hon. John Godfrey, Member of Parliament of Canada, wrote a letter to Hon. Peter MacKay, Minister of Foreign Affairs, urging the Canadian government to take urgent measures in conjunction with the UN and other international bodies to investigate and intervene regarding the organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners in China. MP Godfrey said in the letter: "This kind of mass killing is a challenge to the basic human nature and justice of all of us and we cannot allow this to happen anywhere in the world. If we are aware of this evil and we choose to do nothing we are as guilty as the murderers themselves." Below is the text of the letter.

Dear Minister MacKay,
It has been drawn to my attention that a communist state-run secret extermination camp reminiscent of Auschwitz exists in Shenyang city, Liaoning province in China where Falun Gong prisoners of conscience are being killed and their organs harvested and sold for profit by the state. I understand this Sujiatun Concentration Camp is also equipped with a crematorium to burn the bodies to remove evidence, and that no prisoner has ever been known to have left alive.
This chilling report is consistent with abundant other information about the communist regime's killing of prisoners for their organs including a 1994 Globe and Mail article highlighting a Chinese government document from as early as 1984 stating, "The use of the corpses or organs of executed criminals must be kept strictly secret."
Agence France Presse first reported the construction of two concentration camps for Falun Gong practitioners in 2000. And according to Paris-based Intelligence Online, last June communist authorities reportedly held a "crisis meeting" at which Deputy Minister of Public Security Liu Jing was assigned the task of "stamping out" Falun Gong "before the Olympic Games in 2008."
This kind of mass killing is a challenge to the basic human nature and justice of all of us and we cannot allow this to happen anywhere in the world. If we are aware of this evil and we choose to do nothing we are as guilty as the murderers themselves.
Following the Holocaust the free world made a vow of "never again." I urge the Canadian government to hold Canada to this vow, condemn this atrocity and take urgent measures in conjunction with the UN and other international bodies to investigate and intervene. According to a Canadian Press report (attached), Falun Gong was among top three issues raised to the PMO in 2005. Canada must take a strong and upright stand to call for an end to the persecution in China and ensure the release of all Falun Gong practitioners.
Yours truly,
Honourable John Godfrey, M.P.
