Murder of Hrant Dink

STATEMENT BY THE HON. JASON KENNEY, PC, MP.

I would like to extend my heartfelt sympathy to the
Dink family and believers in freedom and democracy as
we grieve the loss of Armenian journalist, Hrant Dink.

I condemn this barbaric hate crime and hope justice
will be served for those who are responsible for Mr.

Dink’s assassination. Mr. Dink was a well known voice
around the world on Armenian affairs as a courageous
and principled journalist, particularly in his
writings regarding the Armenian genocide. Mr. Dink’s
work to promote tolerance has benefited countless
lives. I fully support the Armenian people as they
continue the work Hrant accomplished throughout his
life. Freedom of speech and respect for diversity must
be adhered to so that we can all live in peace and
harmony.

May God bless his Soul
