On Monday, April 24, 2006, His Eminence Bishop Bagrat Galstanian,
Primate of the Armenian Church Canadian Diocese, sent a letter of
appreciation and gratitude to The Right Honorable Stephen Harper,
Prime Minister of Canada. In his letter, Bishop Galstanian thanked the
Prime Minister for his courageous action and pressed forward to urge
the Harper government to pass a law condemning all Genocide deniers.
The faithful of our Diocese and Armenian communities of Canada should
note that His Eminence Bishop Bagrat Galstanian met with The Right
Hon. Stephen Harper on March 21, 2006 in the office of the Prime
Minister in Ottawa. The purpose of the meeting was to thank Mr.
Harper for his past support of Bill M-380 in the House of Commons,
and use the opportunity to further the discussion on the Armenian
Genocide. On this occasion, Bishop Galstanian also presented a letter
from His Holiness Karekin II, Supreme Patriarch and Catholicos of
All Armenians.
The Diocese of the Armenian Church of Canada, in Montreal, is pleased
to go on record to express its gratification that the accelerated
pace of efforts of the Diocese for recognition of Medz Yeghern
has been successful. This diligent and conscientious process has
brought about a timely and concrete statement from the Office of the
Prime Minister. Mr. Harper signed and sent the statement to Armenian
organizations across Canada on Wednesday April 19, 2006, days leading
up to the 91st anniversary of the Armenian genocide.
