A UK-based pro-democracy group that monitors human rights, freedoms, and the rule of law in Hong Kong officially launched its Canadian branch on May 30, with 20 parliamentarians of various political stripes in attendance to support its inauguration ceremony on Parliament Hill.
The launch was hosted by four patrons of Hong Kong Watch Canada and parliamentarians, including Conservative MPs Garnett Genuis, Melissa Lantsman, James Bezan, and Conservative Sen. Leo Housakos, as well as former Hong Kong Legislative Council member Dennis Kwok. Nearly 100 people attended the event.
