July 6, 2001

As you might know, I am upset by the unrelenting and escalating TORTURING and MURDERING in China, which was brought to a head by the cruel murder of 15 female practitioners on June 20 in Wanjia Labor Camp. I can no longer tolerate such blatant crimes against good people who choose to practice Falun Dafa in China. When I hear that there are plans to suffocate all practitioners who do not renounce Falun Gong by the 20th of July, I know that the situation is most desperate and we need to act now. This is why I am going to the Chinese Embassy today. When I think of the torture that Falun Gong practitioners in China have to bear, I know we are living in heaven, while on the other side of the world Falun Gong practitioners are living in hell. They have endured so much and we need to stand with them for the good values given to us by Falun Dafa of Zhen-Shan-Ren (Truthfulness–Compassion–Forbearance).

What will it take for China to listen???

I promise to be in front of the Chinese Embassy in Ottawa until at least the 20th of July or until China frees the Falun Gong practitioners. I do this with the support of the Falun Dafa team in Ottawa, Montreal, Toronto, Calgary, and Vancouver and Dafa practitioners around the world. You are like family to me.

Please, all kind-hearted people, come and join us by going to your local Chinese Embassy or Consulate until China STOPS the persecution and frees Falun Gong practitioners and frees Falun Gong.

Thousands of people's lives and more are at stake.

Thank You.
