Falun Gong practitioners gather to peacefully demonstrate in front of the Chinese Embassy in Ottawa on July 20, 2019. The event marked 20 years of persecution by the Chinese Communist Party, and speakers urged the Canadian government to call on the regime to end its brutal campaign. Donna He/The Epoch Times
Adherents of the ancient Chinese meditation practice of Falun Gong came together in Ottawa this week to protest 20 years of a violent persecution campaign against their fellow adherents in China.
Gathered in front of the Chinese Embassy on July 18, the yellow-clad practitioners demonstrated their cause by putting up banners and performing the practice’s traditional slow-moving exercises.
