Letter to Officials Attending North American Turkish Leadership Conference
The first-ever North American Turkish Leadership Conference took place from October 8-9, 2011, in Kingston, Ontario. While we encourage the constructive, grassroots activities of all ethnocultural communities in Canada, Armen Karo Student Association took issue with the presence of several elected officials at this conference. The event was organised by the Council of Turkish Canadians (CTC), with the support the Federation of Canadian Turkish Associations (FCTA); Assembly of Turkish American Assocations (ATAA); and Turkish Coalition of America (TCA). These four organisations have a proven track-record of opposing due recognition of the Armenian Genocide, and we believed that the presence of our public representatives at the conference would grant credibility to their views.
With these concerns in mind, a version of the following letter was sent to Liberal MP Ted Hsu, Liberal MPP John Gerretsen, and Mayor Mark Gerretsen - all representing the City of Kingston.
