(Montreal, Thursday, 17 July 2008) –The Canada Tibet Committee today released a primer for Canadian journalists who will be covering the Beijing Games on the situation in Tibet and the issues surrounding Tibet’s future.

The CTC will be available throughout the summer and the Olympic Games to provide additional information or context.
