quote:”Zhao Ziyang, who was the first senior Chinese leader to visit Canada, was well known to Canadians as a pioneer of reform."

Mr. Zhao was put under house arrest for 15 years after attempting to push forward a reform agenda. His administration allowed talk of democratic reform to flourish in the late 1980s, only to see it quashed in the massacre at Tiananmen Square.
