China's human rights record and economic clout take centre stage on International Human Rights Day

In commemoration of International Human Rights Day, various communities in Vancouver gathered together to protest China's boycott of the Nobel Peace Prize award to Chinese dissident Liu Xiao Bo. Subsequent boycotts from 19 different countries followed suit due to China's pressure on these governments. Vancouver Tibetans, Burmese, Chinese, and East Turkestan Uyghurs gathered in front of the Chinese Consulate to renounce China's human rights record and set out a plea to all Canadians.
