Turnisa Matsedik-qira, Of The Vancouver Uyghur Association

Turnisa Matsedik-Qira,
of the Vancouver Uyghur Association,
demonstrates against China’s treatment of Uyghurs
while holding a photo of detained Canadians Michael Spavor,
left, and Michael Kovrig outside a court appearance
for Huawei chief financial officer, Meng Wanzhou
at B.C.’s Supreme Court in Vancouver in May 2019.

Charles Burton says the longer we remain passive
in the face of China’s violations of international trade,
diplomacy and human rights,
the longer we can expect Kovrig and Spavor
to remain in Chinese prison.
