OTTAWA — A petition supporting Prime Minister Mark Carney’s re-engagement with China is circulating in Canada’s Chinese diaspora, launched by an organization that has already submitted a policy proposal to the Prime Minister’s Office on establishing a national Nanjing Massacre Memorial Day.
The Chinese Canadian Proposals Committee, registered in Canada on August 31, 2025—several months after Carney’s spring election—proposed in October 2025 that Parliament establish a Nanjing Massacre Memorial Day “as part of a discussion on public history education,” according to a report posted on Weixin, a Chinese social media platform.
