(Choose one of these greetings)
To the Rt. Hon. Prime Minister, Stephen Harper,
To the Hon. Peter MacKay, Foreign Affairs Minister,
To Mr. Peter Van Loan, Parliamentary Secretary for Foreign Affairs,
To [Your MPs name], Member for [Your constituency name],

I am writing to you with regards to Canada's antiquated one 
China policy.   This policy should be repealed as soon as 
possible since it directly contradicts the Canadian values of 
democracy, freedom, and respect for human rights.  Thus I 
urge you to help oppose the one China policy and recognize 
Taiwan as a fully sovereign, independent nation.

The differences between Taiwan and China are stark.  Taiwan has 
evolved to become the most vibrant democracy in Asia, holding 
regular elections.  The freedom of speech and freedom of the press 
are respected, and human rights are valued.  Such behaviour 
should be rewarded by accepting Taiwan into the international 
community.  

China, on the other hand, remains a strict, totalitarian 
dictatorship that suppresses political dissidents, Tibetan 
and Uyghur activists,  and Falun Dafa practitioners.  It 
continues to censor the internet and refuses to apologize 
for the Tiananmen Square massacre of 1989.  Furthermore, 
it was China that covered up its SARS outbreak, with 
devastating consequences for Toronto and Taiwan.

Why should such atrocious behaviour be rewarded by the 
Canadian government?  Canada can show that it is serious 
about propagating democratic ideals by ignoring Chinese 
objections and establishing diplomatic ties with Taiwan.  
Without doing so, Canada cannot claim to support the 
spread of freedom and democracy.

There are those that would argue that the one China policy 
allows Canada to engage China on human rights issues.  I 
would say this policy of engagement is an utter failure.  
Canada has had diplomatic relations with China since 1971.  
This engagement with China did not prevent the 1989 
Tiananmen Square massacre, did not prevent the 
suppression of political dissent, and does not prevent 
censorship of the internet.  This policy has failed to 
protect democracy activists and Falun Dafa practitioners.  
This policy has failed to prevent the military buildup of 
over 800 missiles China aims at peace-loving Taiwan.

I urge you to stand up for Canadian principles in the face of 
irrational objections from Beijing.  Please help to eliminate the 
One China policy.  Doing so will confirm your will to help 
democratic nations prosper and grow together.


Sincerely,
