I’d like to share the speech at the protest on Tues Sept 2nd, 2014 - Ottawa City Hall
Good afternoon my fellow brothers and sisters,
We are here (Ottawa City Hall) today ( September 2nd, 2014) to shed some light on a controversial issue that affects the lives and identities of us Vietnamese Canadians. Those of us, who have made it here, have done so with the help of a compassionate and sympathetic Canadian government. Canada granted us refuge when our home was bombarded and seized from us. We were given a chance to start a new life and that’s something that we’ll never forget. However, we will also never forget any of the cruel and inhumane travesties committed by the Vietnamese Communist regime. Since the Vietnam War and still ongoing today, the Vietnamese Communist party has been in constant violation of basic human rights. That is why we stand here before you in Ottawa today to ask that Canada must also not forget our perilous journey for survival and the constant struggle of those left behind. We should be fighting for those who have been stripped of their rights instead of turning a blind eye and even backing their corrupt oppressors.
The unjust imprisonment of human rights activists and web bloggers and the merciless beating of innocent citizens are just a few of the common atrocities that happen every day in Vietnam. With that in mind, Ottawa’s mayor, Jim Watson plans to fly the Socialist Republic of Vietnam’s flag today at City Hall in honor of Vietnam’s Independence Day. To see this happen in our home country is like parading Hitler’s Nazi flag in front of a Jewish community. This show of support for the Vietnamese Community Party is a major concern for us and must be put to a stop. We free Vietnamese Canadians do not recognize the Vietnamese communist flag, as it represents cruelty, oppression and injustice.
The government of Canada has been made aware of the controversy between its Vietnamese Canadian citizens and the Vietnamese communist reg
