Inciting Hatred against Tibetans

Monday, March 31st, 2008

Dear Editor,
Re: City of Toronto owes its Tibetan citizens an apology
I have just read your article on CFP, and I am impressed on how you can lie without feeling a bit guilty, How on earth did we attack shoppers passersby? and you said “(Chinese students) put a black mark on Toronto’s popular Dundas Square yesterday.” […]

Hatred against Tibetans, Falun Gong and Epoch Times

Dear Editor:
Re: City of Toronto owes its Tibetan citizens an apology
“1,000 students chanted “Dalai Lama die there”
—-Who translated that to you? Probably I should say “created for you”. Your Fa Lun Gong friend or your Tibetan friend? Do you speak or understand Mandarin? Many people who were there the whole afternoon never heard that.

Tibetan Chinese are Chinese

Dear Editor:
Re: City of Toronto owes its Tibetan citizens an apology
I am writing to object to your editor’s one-sided and biased report in the article “City of Toronto owes its Tibetan citizens an apology.”
Before you force the “CCP-controlled” identity on me, I need to tell you that I am a JD student in the US […]

Sparking the hatred between Tibetan and Han Chinese

Monday, March 31st, 2008

Dear Editor:
Re: City of Toronto owes its Tibetan citizens an apology
From the article you published,
Quote
“Touted as a gathering to promote “anti-violence”, a throng of about 1,000 students chanted “Dalai Lama die there” to a small counter protest of Tibetan protesters who had gathered across the street. ”

Apologize to the peaceful Chinese

Monday, March 31st, 2008

Dear Editor:
Re: City of Toronto owes its Tibetan citizens an apology
I am utterly surprised to read the content of your news article on the Chinese rally that took place on March 29 at Dundas Square. Your article portrayed the Dundas Square gathering as if it is nothing but a hateful group demonstrating hate toward another […]

Nothing to apologize for!

Dear Editor:
Re: City of Toronto owes its Tibetan citizens an apology
Hello,
I would like to make a few comments regarding your website article.

Dear Editor:
I wonder what president Hillary Clinton would do if that 3 a.m. phone call she keeps talking about was from Monica?

Help save our domestic food industry

Sunday, March 23rd, 2008

Dear Editor:
As a member of the Ontario Landowners Association, I frequently get calls from people who want to help save our domestic food industry but don’t know how. The answer is surprisingly simple–and it’s something every Canadian can do.
First, realize how much power you actually have in this situation. Unlike many other countries, our government […]

Bob Rae wins Toronto riding

Saturday, March 22nd, 2008

Re “Bob Rae wins Toronto riding.” (March 18).
Rae Days! Rae Days! Good old NDP days
with promises, promises of pie in the sky
and how the proles would be rich in the sweet-
bye-and-bye.
They said be of good cheer, the good times are
near,
soon life will be all skittles-and-beer.
Then, all of a sudden things went awry,
for the pie-in-the-sky you […]

Snow in Toronto

TO KEEP
THE TRAFFIC INCHES TO-AND-FRO
BUT I’M SERENE BECAUSE I KNOW,
TODAY THERE’S NOWHERE I
MUST GO
