Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre marked the June 4 anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre with a tribute to the lives lost standing for democracy, along with criticism of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) for aggressively attempting to erase reminders and memorials of the event, even 34 years later.

His party “will always fight for freedom, and we will always stand with Chinese Canadians as they attempt to live in peace,” he said in a June 4 news release.
