The Canadian Parliament has heard a strong attack on the abuses in Eritrea, as well as harassment and attacks on members of the Eritrean opposition now living in Canada. The subject was raised by Garnett Genius, the member for Sherwood Park – Fort Saskatchewan.

The member of parliament spoke out against the imprisonment of all Eritreans held without trial, called for sanctions against the Eritrean regime and the key problem of Transnational Repression, which had been raised with him in a petition prepared by members of Blue Revolution.

In 2023 Canadian parliamentarians heard similar concerns, in a petition presented by Anita Vandenbeld MP for Ottawa West—Nepean. 

Eritreans hope that the fresh petition will lead to action from the government against the Eritrean regime and its supporters in Canada.
