Date: Saturday, January 1, 2022

Time: 11am to 12pm
Location: McDougall Centre, 455 - 6 St SW, Calgary.

Background:
In an interview with Rick Bell of Postmedia, Alberta Premier Jason Kenney used an extremely offensive language of "bat soup thing out of Wuhan" to suggest the possible source of a future global pandemic. What is even more horrendous is that, instead of coming forward to apologize to the public, especially the Chinese communities who have suffered singnificantly increased discrimination, racism and hate crimes since the onset of the pandemic, he doubled down and sent his acting Press Secretary Harrison Fleming to claim '"it is obviously ridiculous to suggest that these widely reported scientific theories are 'racist'.". No one could believe our Premier is so "ridiculous" and arrogant. There is no such a thing as bat soup in Wuhan and there is even no credible link between Covid-19 and bats. His ridiculous remarks would definitely cause more racism, discrimination and hate towards the Chinese communities. We want an inclusive Alberta and he must apologize!

Action:
A rally is organized to demand Premier Kenney to make a public apology. Many groups are joining force and hundreds of people are expected. 

抗议省长种族歧视言论集会通知

12月22日，阿省省长Jason Kenney接受Postmedia 的 记者Rick Bell 采访时，谈到新冠肺炎病毒，公然使用“武汉蝙蝠汤”来暗示未来病毒全球大流行的可能来源。JK的言论充满恶意和歧视，将更加恶化华人社区的处境和感受，也自然遭到了广泛的谴责。然而，面对舆论，省长非但没有出面道歉，而是派出代理新闻秘书Harrison Fleming声称“认为这些被广泛报道的科学理论是‘种族主义’显然是荒谬的。”

武汉没有蝙蝠汤，新冠病毒与蝙蝠的关系依然存疑，而我们的省长却“言之凿凿”，无非是靠煽动种族仇恨和鼓吹种族歧视来为自己疫情以来的无能表现甩锅。

JK必须公开道歉！

本周六（2022 年 1 月 1 日）上午11点至中午12点
地点：McDougall Centre, 455 - 6 St SW, Calgary

2022年1月1日，大家一起站出来，要求省长立即道歉！！！
