Summary

Emma Reilly, the UN human rights lawyer who was fired for telling the truth, reveals how the United Nations — with Canada’s involvement — secretly gave the Chinese government the names of dissidents before they even spoke at the UN. She explains how this betrayal put people and their families in China at extreme risk of arrest, torture, and worse. A shocking story of complicity that Canada still hasn’t answered for.
