Historical photos and other evidence related to the 1937 Nanjing Massacre was exhibited on-site. The exhibition was co-organized by the Nanjing Association of Canada and The World War II Asian Memorial Museum of Canada.

In July this year, Wang Haicheng, president of the Nanjing Association of Canada, proposed 80 Chinese communities should work jointly to organize memorial activities and hold exhibitions of survivors’ testimonies and historical evidence. A mass rally and series of public commemorative activities were launched in North America, South America, Europe, Oceania, Southeast Asia and Africa on Dec 13.

Andrew Scheer, head of Canada’s conservative party, wrote a statement to support this memorial and the establishment of The World War II Asian Memorial Museum of Canada on behalf of the whole party. Stephen Lindley, a family member of Norman Bethune, a Canadian physician who served as a doctor for the Chinese guerilla army during WWII, as well as important members of the Canadian government and the Chinese government all sent more than 100 support letters to this event.
