加拿大外交部長尼科爾森關于六四事件26周年的聲明
2015年6月4日

"今天，加拿大人民紀念天安門事件發生26周年。1989年6月4日，在天安門廣場及附近地區，中國政府對手無寸鐵、和平集會的民眾進行 了武力鎮壓。
根据中國憲法，中國公民享有言論、集會与結社的自由。而中國政府對行使這些基本權利的個人進行關押，違背了中國法律以及國 際人權義務。
加拿大要求中國政府打破對發生在26年前的事件的沉默，對被殺害、被關押或者被失蹤的人公開承擔責任，以啟動民族愈合与和 解的進程。只有公開承認過去的歷史事實，國家才能真正地走向繁榮、法治和更和諧的未來。"

Statement by Minister Nicholson on 26th Anniversary of Tiananmen Square
June 4, 2015 – Ottawa, Ontario - Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development Canada
The Honourable Rob Nicholson, P.C., Q.C., M.P. for Niagara Falls, Minister of Foreign Affairs, today issued the following statement:
"Today, Canadians commemorate the 26th anniversary of the violent crackdown against unarmed and peaceful civilians that occurred in and around Beijing's Tiananmen Square on June 4, 1989.
"Under the Chinese constitution, Chinese citizens enjoy freedom of speech, assembly and association. The detention of individuals for exercising these rights runs counter to China's domestic and international human rights obligations.
"Canada urges China to break its silence on the events of 26 years ago by openly accounting for the people who were killed, detained or went missing and by launching a process of national healing and reconciliation. Only by publicly acknowledging a difficult past can nations pave the way to prosperity, the rule of law and a more harmonious future."
