【大纪元5月21日讯】（大纪元讯）由“法轮功受迫害真相联合调查团”及多个国际人权组织联合发起的全球“人权圣火” 5月4日进入加拿大后，受到政府、民间、人权团体等多方的欢迎。近日，加拿大犹太人组织也为圣火传递发来贺信支持，并谴责中共违反人权的暴行。
信中表示：“我们感谢全球人权圣火传递的主办者、参加者，使这个活动圆满成功，你们同时也点亮一盏灯，让最恶劣的人权侵犯行为公诸于世。”
“生活在加拿大的人很幸运，有信仰、言论和结社自由，这是一个珍惜基本自由的国度。”
信中谴责， 在中国，任何得不到政府许可的信仰都被压制。而且经常是残酷的压制。目前，这包括基督徒、维吾尔穆斯林，西藏喇嘛和法轮功团体。在乌孜别克被中国抓捕的加籍人士Celil至今仍然没有消息。
在国际上，中国致使其他的极权政府，如苏丹、卢旺达，去残害无辜；中国长期以来连同联合国的伊斯兰会议组织，长期妖魔化自由、和平的以色列，否认以色列的合法性， 而却庇护人权侵犯者，不加以制裁。
资助恐怖份子的伊朗、叙利亚政府应当受到国际社会的孤立，但是中国却给他们提供武器，使无数人的生命受到威胁。
信中最后说：“犹太人的经历是我们常常是孤单的面对迫害。所以，今天，加拿大犹太人组织在这里与所有全世界受过中国政府迫害的受害人，那些渴望尊重，容忍和自由的人民站在一起。我们要求中国政府改善其人权记录，并且尊重生命。”
加拿大犹太人组织建立与1875年以来，率先在反犹太主义，种族歧视，人权、以及在推动一些重大社会问题上做了许多工作，并提供重要的社会服务， 因此得到社会的尊重。
信件英文全文如下:
The Global Human Rights Torch Relay (HRTR) – B’nai Brith Canada Speech
B’nai Brith Canada is the independent voice of the Jewish community,
representing its interests nationwide to government, NGO’s and the wider
Canadian public.
Since 1875, it has been respected for its groundbreaking work on matters
relating to anti-Semitism, racism and human rights, its strong advocacy on
the pressing issues of the day, and the important social services it
provides.
Freedom of religion. Freedom of speech. Freedom of association. We are truly
blessed to live in Canada, a country that cherishes these fundamental
freedoms.
In China, any belief that is not officially endorsed by the government is
repressed. Often brutally. Today, this includes the Christian, Uyghur
Muslim, Tibetan Buddhist and Falun Gong communities. Huseyin Celil, a
Canadian Citizen abducted by China in Uzbekistan, is still missing from his
family and loved ones.
Internationally, China enables dictators to commit their atrocities in Sudan
and Rwanda. China consistently votes with the Organization of Islamic
Conference at the United Nations, a grouping of countries that regularly
attempts to demonize and de-legitimize the free and democratic State of
Israel while shielding true Human Rights violators from sanction. Terror
sponsoring regimes such as Iran and Syria should be internationally
isolated, but instead China supplies them with weaponry, putting countless
lives at stake.
The Jewish experience has all too often been that when we faced persecution,
we faced it alone. That is why, today, B’nai Brith Canada stands in
solidarity with all the victims of Chinese oppression around the world, who
yearn for the respect, tolerance and freedom that they deserve. We ask
China to improve its record of human rights, and respect for human life.
We thank the organizers and participants of the Global Human Rights Torch
Relay for making this event a success, and shining a light on some of the
worst human rights violations in the world today.
