反抗極權的音樂會
A concert on humanity and freedom
《寜化飛灰》加拿大首影
Canadian Premiere “Rather Be Ashes Than Dust”
紀錄片《寧化飛灰》導演劉健倫在香港從事電影及紀錄片拍攝近20年，亦為獨立記者。2019年香港反送中運動，他走遍大街小巷拍攝了無數抗爭場面。身處混亂和暴力現場，特別在地鐵車廂目睹警察粗暴毆打市民的一幕，令他不斷反思應否保持記者的專業及中立，抑或聽從內心呼喚向受害人伸出援手。劉健倫導演更會專程由英國前來多倫多，在放映完畢後與觀眾交流對談。紀錄片及放影會詳情請閱本會網頁，購票請用以下連結往 Eventbrite。
Director Alan Lau of the documentary Rather be Ashes than Dust has been working in the filming industry and as a freelance journalist in Hong Kong for 20 years. During the 2019 pro-democracy movement in Hong Kong, he captured many protests with his video camera on the streets all over the city. At many chaotic and violent situations, particularly at the scene witnessing police brutality against citizens inside subway cars, he often questioned himself whether he should continue to hold a neutral stand as a professional journalist or follow his heart as an ordinary citizen to give a helping hand to those in distress. Director Alan Lau will meet the audience for Q&A after each screening. Please visit TADC web page for more information on the documentary and the screening, or follow the links below for tickets at Eventbrite.

紀念劉曉波獄中辭世七年
7th Year Passing of Liu Xiaobo
7月13日是劉曉波逝世七周年紀念日，「多倫多支持中國民運會」兩位共同主席專程到渥太華位於「國際特赦」總部的《劉曉波空座椅紀念碑》前獻花，悼念這位至死為推動中國民主而奮鬥的諾貝爾和平獎得主。劉在獄中染病去世，令人聯想到年屆76高齡的前《蘋果日報》創辦人黎智英先生未審先囚過千日的境況。
本會現正組織簽名聯署要求加拿大政府採取相關行動，讓國際社會向港共施壓釋放黎智英等政治犯，並且審視加拿大政策關閉香港經貿處，請留意本會稍後公佈詳情。
On the anniversary of Nobel Peace laureate Liu Xaiobo’s death in 2017, Toronto Association for Democracy in China (TADC) urged the Hong Kong government to grant Jimmy Lai a compassionate release for medical treatment. “Engraved on the memorial is a direct quote from Liu: Freedom of expression is the foundation of human rights,” said Cheuk Kwan, the association’s co-chair. “It serves to remind us that Jimmy Lai’s Apple Daily was a beacon of freedom of the press, which can help reveal and protect the truth.” Winnie Ng, the association’s co-chair added, “Liu’s case is a strong reminder of what could happen to Jimmy Lai.“
TADC is organizing a petition to urge the Canadian government to take action with applying international pressure to the Hong Kong CCP government to release Lai and other political prisoners. The petition will also urge the Canadian government to review its policy to close down HKETO. Please stay tuned for announcement soon.
《幸彤在監獄》放影會
She’s In Jail Documentary Screenings
這部紀錄片記述一位被逮捕的人權律師鄒幸彤，反影着港區國安法對律師的約束，也深入探討了鄒幸彤認為法律應該保護公民的堅定不移信念。本會安排於多倫多都會大學及約克大學分別舉行放影會，兩場均告滿座。請往本會臉書專頁圖片集重温放影會情況。
鄒幸彤被羅織多項國安法罪名而身陷獄中，本會現正組織簽名聯署要求加拿大政府採取相關行動，讓國際社會向港共施壓釋放鄒幸彤等政治犯，並且審視加拿大政策關閉香港經貿處，請留意本會稍後公佈。
Filming an arrested human rights lawyer Chow Hang Tung under Hong Kong’s National Security Law, this documentary partly portrays a sharp decline in the rule of law in society. It also delves into Chow’s unwavering belief that fundamentally, the law should protect citizens. TADC arranged documentary screening at Toronto Metropolitan University and York University with full house at both locations. Please go to TADC Facebook photo albums to see the photos of each event.
Chow remains in prison on trumped-up charges under the National Security Law. TADC is organizing a petition to urge the Canadian government to take action applying international pressure to the Hong Kong CCP government to release Chow and other political prisoners. The petition will also urge the Canadian government to review its policy to close down HKETO. Please stay tuned for announcement soon.
反對香港廿三條立法
Condemn Hong Kong Article 23 Legislation
《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，擴闊了北京於2020年實施的《港區國安法》，讓政府任意地將顛覆、分裂國家、恐怖主義和勾結外國勢力定為犯罪行為。當日百多人冒着炎寒，與民運會一起呼籲加拿大政府及自由世界的國家，譴責香港及其主權中國對香港人持續不斷並日益加劇的鎮壓。請往本會臉書專頁圖片集重温集會情況。
The Toronto Association for Democracy in China (TADC) strongly condemns Hong Kong government’s Article 23 of the Basic Law – a law that allows the government to arbitrarily criminalize subversion, secession, terrorism, and collusion with foreign forces. On that day in bitter cold, hundreds of supporters joined TADC calling on the Canadian government as well as nations of the free world to censure Hong Kong and its Chinese masters for their continuing and increasing repression of the people of Hong Kong. Please go to TADC Facebook photo album to see the photos of the event.
