/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Ottawa-Canadian Jewish organizations organized
a conference with Armenian community of Canada on the issue of the
Armenian Genocide on February 6. The ANCC (Armenian National Committee
of Canada) told the PanARMENIAN.Net journalist that during debates
between Aris Babikian, ANCC executive director, and Israel’s minister
of public security Avi Dicter the latter said he is not aware of any
decision or policy by his government to deny the Armenian Genocide.
Earlier in the day Babikian participated in a panel discussion titled
"Having Our Voices heard: Enhancing Effectiveness of the Ethnic
Community Advocacy." He presented the Armenian National Committee’s
advocacy work in the past 40 years on behalf of the Canadian-Armenia
community and specially the organization’s efforts to secure the
recognition of the Armenian Genocide by the federal, provincial and
municipal governments.
