Supporter of crackdown likely part of Toronto delegation
Tibet Repression Shadows Mayor’s China Trip
By OnTheWeb: Jason Loftus and Joan Delaney Thursday, April 10, 2008When Toronto Mayor David Miller departs for China next weekend, he’s likely to be joined by a prominent supporter of the Chinese regime’s crackdown in Tibet.
A spokesperson for the mayor said Wednesday he expects Mr. Miller to be joined on the business mission by Ping Tan, a Toronto lawyer and businessman.
The two were pictured together in Chinese-language press announcing the trip on March 20.
A statement sent last week to Chinese-language media from Tan’s Toronto law office, Tan & Associates, hailed the regime’s response to the recent unrest in Tibet.
