A number of MPs spoke at a rally on Parliament Hill on May 10 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the introduction of the Chinese spiritual practice Falun Gong to the public on May 13, 1992. The event was attended by hundreds of Falun Gong adherents and included a parade and traditional dance and music performances.

Liberal MP Judy Sgro said the moral teachings of Falun Gong, also called Falun Dafa, that are based on the tenets of truthfulness, compassion, and forbearance are “hope for the future” and what “Canadians want to hear more about.”
