Canada Tibet Committee

 The Canada Tibet Committee (CTC), formed nationally in 1987, is a registered, non-profit organization with chapters across Canada and headquarters in Montreal. The Victoria Chapter of CTC, formed in 1988, actively works to increase awareness of Tibet and Tibetans on local and national levels.

The CTC is a volunteer organization committed to non-violence, funded by private donations, special events and membership. A legitimate voice in Canada for Tibetans, each Chapter includes a Tibetan within its executive.

The Canada Tibet Committee organizes:

• calls for universal human rights and freedoms for the Tibetan people
• monitors and reports violations of human rights in Tibet
• information on the situation in Tibet and the history and culture of the Tibetan people
  lobbying of Canadian Members of Parliament, provincial and local governments to act - quickly to help the Tibetan people
• information for the media about conditions in Tibet
• lectures, conferences, rallies and cultural events by working with other international non-governmental organizations and Tibet support groups

The Canada Tibet Committee is committed to drawing the attention of Canadians and people world-wide, to the illegal occupation of Tibet by the People's Republic of China and the resulting human rights abuses and cultural genocide.

The CTC is headquartered in Montreal and has chapters across Canada
