Turkey to Open a Consulate in Toronto

If you thought that the Turkish lobby in Canada was weak...think again.

This weekend marks the G20 summit which will be taking place in Toronto. Leaders from all over the world will be present at this important meeting including Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

This is a man who has made a multi-million dollar industry out of arm-twisting powerful countries such as the U.S. against recognizing the Armenian Genocide and who cannot hide his pride in having bullied and bribed his way through yet another April 24th.

Furthermore, as part of his agenda this week, Prime Minister Erdogan will be opening a new Turkish Consulate in Toronto. It seems that the Turkish government has targeted Toronto as a place to try and roll back the Armenian community's recent gains, such as the inclusion of the Armenian Genocide in a course administered by the Toronto District School Board. These efforts, and others, by the Turkish lobby are dangerous to the future security of the Armenian nation - but we know that with your help they will not go unopposed.

The Armenian National Committee of Toronto knows the stakes.

That's why we fight night and day across the front lines of the Armenian Cause, to stand up for your views, to defend your values, and to ensure that your voice is heard and respected locally and federally.
