PARLIAMENT HILL, Ottawa—A celebration of ribbons and drums on Canada’s Parliament Hill Wednesday took place amidst a backdrop of political upheaval in China that has some MPs hopeful for brighter days in the Middle Kingdom.
Hundreds of Falun Dafa adherents gathered on Parliament Hill to mark Falun Dafa Day, an annual celebration of the public introduction of the meditation practice. Performances by dancers and musicians were punctuated by speeches from MPs and Senator Consiglio Di Nino, who spoke of their hope for an end to the crackdown on the group in China.
The Epoch Times asked several MPs from the Parliamentary Friends of Falun Gong what they thought of events unfolding in China today, where senior ranking party cadres have been ousted from the party with others expected to fall soon.
