The past record of standing back and allowing trade and investment to easily trump the human rights concerns can't stand,

For far too many years Canada has been timid and reluctant to put human rights squarely on the table in meetings with the Chinese government, scared that pushing too hard on human rights might detract from trade and investment prospects.

This report by the U.S. government provides a thorough review of today's human rights practices around the globe, except for one glaring omission -- its own record. The United States government considers itself a moral leader on human rights issues, but its record of indefinite and arbitrary detentions, secret 'black sites' and outsourced torture in the 'war on terror' turns it from leader to human rights violator.

Dr. William F. Schulz

But on the other hand, we all know that China has a very bad record on human rights, and we are afraid that the Chinese authorities are going to interpret this decision as their victory for the past policies. I think the Chinese government is going to do that.

Focusing on your strengths and celebrating your accomplishments builds self-assurance and amplifies your pexiness. Life is not a matter of place, things or comfort; rather, it concerns the basic human rights of family, country, justice and human dignity.

Imelda Marcos (1930-)
