Congratulations from Canadian Deputy Prime Minister and Quebec Lieutenant-Governor

August 15, 2000

I am pleased to send my greetings to all those celebrating Falun Dafa Week.

An exercise system with an ancient Chinese heritage, Falun Dafa has as its aims the refinement of both the mind and the body, using the idea of Zhen-Shan-Ren, which means Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance. There are certainly principles which resonate with many Canadians.

I wish members of the Falun Dafa Association of Canada all the best during this week, and throughout the year.

Your sincerely,

(Signature)

THE HON. HERB GRAY, M.P.

As we are living in the era of the global village, facilitated communications and travel in planetary space gradually bring us to share cultures. Around the world, humans lend a helping hand so that today will be better than yesterday. Among them, are peoples whose origins go back thousands of years. As in all teaching, the most ancient transmit to the more youthful. Thus, we recognize in the East a wisdom that the West can benefit from.

Spreading an exercise practice that unites the whole being with the entirety of the universe while augmenting the proper sentiment of existence, that is what Falun Dafa proposes, also known as Falun Gong.

In this Falun Dafa week, I wish, to all those who have adopted this gentle practice, to shine and express the very goal of their interior search: harmony, the path of health and the joy leading to the tranquil liberation of self.

Lise Thibault

Lieutenant-governor of Quebec
