Press Conference Notice
A press conference has been scheduled for Thursday, June 5 to publicly express the Chinese community’s upset at the offensive cartoon published in the Toronto Sun of May 28 accompanying the article entitled “SARS is a stubborn, sneaky foe” by Bob MacDonald.
The large-size, coloured cartoon showed skeletons dressed in suits, carrying briefcases and wearing masks bearing the phrase “Made in China” with the caption “Opening new markets for a fresh product.”
It’s as if thousands of Chinese were rushing out, carrying SARS in their briefcases to infect the world.
Very disturbing image. Yet the Toronto Sun insists it’s justified.
Therefore, something must be done to send a strong message to the Sun that we are hurt and angered. And that the way they conduct their business is not acceptable.
Please come and tell your friends to come to the press conference, tell other community groups to send representatives to the conference.
Please call CPAC Office at 416-298-7885 to report your attendance and the number of people from your organization.
Press Conference Details:
Thursday, June 5, at 1 pm
Metro Hall, Room 313
55 John Street, between Front & King Streets
Speakers at the conference include:
Hughes Eng, Chair, Confederation of Toronto Chinese Canadian Organizations
Ping Tan, Executive Co-Chair, National Congress of Chinese Canadians
Ming Tat Cheung, Chairman, Chinese Cultural Centre of Greater Toronto and Coordinator of Chinese Community Coalition Concerned about SARS
The conference will be chaired by Andi Shi, Senior Vice President of Chinese Professionals Association of Canada
