The Canadian parliament took action Tuesday to declare China’s treatment of the Uyghurs a “genocide” while President Joe Biden continues to fail to do so.
The motion passed with a 266 — 0 vote and “was supported by all opposition parties and a handful of lawmakers from the governing Liberal Party. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and most members of his cabinet abstained,” as reported by the BBC.
Canadian lawmakers also reportedly passed an amendment requesting Canada to call on the International Olympic Committee to move the 2022 Winter Olympics out of Beijing “if the Chinese government continues this genocide.”
Rep. Michael Waltz (R-FL) has also introduced a measure asking the United States to boycott the 2022 Winter Olympics, as The Daily Wire reported.
