The Toronto Association for Democracy in China (TADC) strongly condemns Hong Kong government’s Article 23 of the Basic Law. 《多倫多支持中國民運會》強烈譴責香港政府的《基本法》第23條法案。
TADC would like to announce that Candlelight vigil for the 33rd anniversary of June 4 was attended by more than 2000 people, a record not seen in the past 20 years. Cheuk Kwan, TADC past chair for more than 20 years, said, “we finally succeeded in uniting the two generations this year together, to remember Tiananmen Massacre in 1989 and to keep on fighting for Hong Kong since the pro-democracy movement in 2019.”
Joy Luk, the first and only blind solicitor in Hong Kong, arrived safely in Canada last December. Since then, she has well adjusted to the pace of Toronto, enjoying the first winter of snow. The bravery of Joy’s participation during the 2019 pro-democracy movement has been covered in an extensive interview with the Toronto Star at the end of January.
As a visiting scholar now with the School of Disability Studies, X (Ryerson) University, Joy has been busy doing guest lectures and engaging in rich conversations with students. Congratulations is also due to Joy on her latest appointment as an “Activist in Residence” with the Centre for Feminist Research, York University.
