A Hong Kong rights advocacy group in Canada is raising concerns over Hong Kong Police Force (HKPF) members taking photos of protesters during an international police sporting event in Winnipeg. It is also expressing “outrage” at Canada’s decision to allow the HKPF to compete in the games while banning teams from Russia and some other countries.
“We were initially very surprised, because we felt that Canada, as a free and democratic country, should stand together with its allies that also believe in democracy and freedom. However, later on, in addition to being surprised, we were outraged, as we couldn’t understand why the Canadian government allowed this group of people to enter Canada and furthermore to be able to act freely,” Brian Cheung, a member of Winnipeg Hong Kong Concern, told The Epoch Times in Chinese.
