Canadian Media Pay Attention to the Persecution, Organ Harvesting in China

(Clearwisdom.net) Winston Liu is a PhD student at the University of Calgary; his wife Yue Yao is imprisoned in mainland China. Their friend Chi Ye is concerned that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) will execute Yao and harvest her vital organs for sale. He said, "Anybody could be a target when they’re in that situation."

Toronto Sun and Canoe reported on February 26, "Last month, former Edmonton MP David Kilgour told the Sun that an unknown number of wealthy Albertans have traveled to China to buy kidneys and livers harvested from executed devotees of the outlawed Falun Gong movement."

"Kilgour said he and immigration lawyer David Matas have gathered overwhelming evidence that Chinese officials are killing Falun Gong practitioners and harvesting their organs for transplant for as much as $70,000 per organ."

The article said that Winston Liu’s wife is being imprisoned for distributing leaflets detailing the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners. Liu has lost contact with his wife.

Edmonton Falun Gong practitioners are urging the Canadian government to get involved and initiate rescue efforts.

Chi Yeh, an accountant in Edmonton hoped to raise enough public awareness for this matter and do something. Chi Yeh said "All the people should be concerned about it and be aware and lend a hand to help rescue his wife."

"When the voice is strong, our government can exert pressure [on the CCP]."
