Braving freezing temperatures and the bone-chilling wind, fifteen practitioners sat in the snow quietly to protest the killing of their fellow practitioners detained in the Sujiatun Concentration Camp. Their actions received support and concern from numerous kind-hearted people, who signed the practitioners' petition. Local media including City TV, the Sun, Ottawa Citizen, Central News Agency and CTV News reported on this event.
1. Heartfelt Wish of Hunger Strikers
The fifteen practitioner hunger strikers include Xin Liu, Meiling Tian, Yunqin Huang, Yu Zhao, Jinju Wang, Yujiao Guo, Hongmin Wang, Yumin Zhang, Xiuzhen Huang, Xiuqin Liao, Yuer Li, Guofu Li, Shaofeng Li and Xiaoyang Gao.
Yunqin Huan is 73. She said: "My siblings in China practice Falun Gong. Some of their fellow practitioners have disappeared for a long time, and they could have been murdered in the Sujiatun Concentration Camp. With this 3-day hunger strike, I want to call people's attention to the camp."
Meiling Tian has practiced Falun Gong for 8 years. She said, "The whole family of my daughter's neighbor practices Falun Gong. One day, their house was ransacked and the son has disappeared for good. I call on the Canadian government to help us to rescue all of the practitioners who are being persecuted by the communist regime."
Jinju Wan said, "In the past several days, a voice repeatedly asked me for help. I can't remain silent anymore. I call on the Canadian government and all kind-hearted people to take action to end the Chinese Communist regime's persecution of Falun Gong. I call on the media to bring attention to the Sujiatun Concentration Camp."
Yuzhao just came to Canada from China. With tears, she told a reporter, "I know the persecution of Mainland practitioners very well and I know the nature of the CCP. When I first heard the news of the Sujiatun Concentration Camp, I knew that it was well within the CCP's capability and way of doing things."
2. "How Can They Persecute Such a Peaceful Group of People so Brutally?"
With a petition form in his hand, Goudel listened attentively to a practitioner's introduction. He then stared at practitioners who were meditating and pondered for a while. In the end, he said, "People are persecuted for doing such a peaceful practice. This is too brutal and inhumane. How can they persecute such a peaceful group of people so brutally?"
3. "You Guys are Great!"
A Montreal gentleman said that he was shocked when he first read the practitioners' flier. After listening to an introduction, he said: "Jiang Zemin is so evil and has committed so many crimes out of self-interest. Some people are really pitiful, as they have done so many things against their own conscience for personal interests."
He also commented that the communist party should be happy for having such a peaceful group and wondered why it would persecute them.
In the end, he said: "You guys are great. You have sacrificed so much for Falun Gong practitioners in China. I wish you a lot of luck."
4. Police Officer Take the Initiative to Learn about the Truth
Upon seeing practitioners who were conducting hunger strikes, a police officer came to talk with a practitioner. He asked, "I am very concerned about their [hunger strikers'] safety. Can you tell me what is going on?" The practitioner told him about the nature of the Chinese Communist Party and the secret Sujiatun Concentration Camp. After listening attentively, the officer repeatedly said, "It is appalling! Why? Why does China allow it happen?"
In the end, he said, "The human rights record of China is very bad and the whole world know that. However, I didn't know it is so brutal."
On March 15, Canberra practitioners held a press conference in front of the Chinese Embassy to call for attention to the secret Sujiatun Concentration Camp.
Recently, an informant revealed information of the secret Sujiatun Concentration Camp, which has detained at least 6000 practitioners. They are being killed at the camp, and the camp authorities harvest their organs and then cremates the bodies.
Sydney practitioner Geoff Gregory read a statement from the Australian Falun Dafa Association. The statement compared these atrocities with the genocide of Jews in Auschwitz and called upon the Australian government and people from all walks of life to investigate these terrible atrocities.

Dr. Liu, a representative of the World Organization to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong (WOIPFG), read an investigation announcement. The announcement urged people with information to come forward to provide names of all involved institutions and individuals. WOIPFG stressed that the organization has launched a thorough investigation of the concentration and will go after all individuals who planned and carried out orders to set up the concentration camp; individuals from political and legal system and police officers who were involved in the arrest, transfer and murder of practitioners; medical staff involved in the harvesting and sale of practitioners' organs; individuals involved in cremating practitioners' bodies, and other staff at the camp.
Canberra practitioner Ms. Liu said: The Chinese Communist regime arbitrarily kills practitioners detained in the secret Sujiatun Concentration Camp. In addition, the regime harvests practitioners' organs for profit and cremates their bodies to destroy evidence. The atrocities are inhumane and unprecedented.
All participants of the press conference called on kind-hearted Chinese people and the international community to help end the ongoing genocide of innocent Falun Gong practitioners.
In the morning of March 16, Singapore Falun Gong practitioners rallied in front of the Chinese Embassy to strongly protest the killing of practitioners and the sale of their organs at the Chinese Communist regime's Sujiatun Concentration Camp.
The situation of the camp was recently disclosed by an informant. Reportedly, the camp has illegally detained at least 6000 practitioners and harvested organs from many of these practitioners for sale. In addition, the camp has many doctors and is equipped with a crematory to incinerate practitioners' bodies in order to destroy evidence. To date, no detainees have left the camp alive.
The World Organization to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong (WOIPFG) has published a report, which states: According to our initial investigation, there truly exists a large "organ market" in Sujiatun, Shenyang City, Liaoning Province, China. It is a systematic procedural practice, which includes building the death camp, detaining the "suppliers" (living Falun Gong practitioners), matching Falun Gong practitioners' organs with people who need them, surgically removing the organs, eliminating the victims' bodies and setting up the hospitals that use these stolen organs. The hospitals may be located outside of Sujiatun. International human rights organization have reported an independent system of harvesting death-row inmates' organs, and even cases of the prospect of organ harvesting playing a role in the determination of capital punishment. Without any legal procedures, Falun Gong practitioners are taken to the Sujiatun death camp without anyone's knowledge. They are in complete isolation. Their bodies are cremated after their organs are harvested.
Braving the heat, Singapore practitioners rallied in front of the Chinese Embassy to protest the atrocities of the Chinese Communist regime. The practitioners' banners attracted attention from many people who came to the embassy for consular service.
A lady who came from Huangguo district, Shenyang city asked many questions. She said that her husband was a Falun Gong practitioner. After the regime started to persecute Falun Gong, her husband was arrested. She said that her husband was a very good man and thus she never interfered with his practice. However, due to the persecution, her husband was forced to leave their home. She lost contact with her husband for a while and she was very worried. She asked many questions about the concentration camp. In addition, she said that a friend of her husband has also disappeared.
After viewing all the posters, a Chinese person told a practitioners that he didn't like the Chinese Communist Party, as it is so violent and brutal. He asked practitioners to help him to quit the Youth League.
The Singapore practitioners call on all kind-hearted people to pay attention to and help end the ongoing genocide.
