On February 17, the annual Chinese community parade was held in Vancouver's Chinatown. Practitioners arrived early at the parade site to set up banners, flags, balloons and pinwheels made by young practitioners. Truth clarifying posters were lined up along the streets; TVs were set up at visible locations. Many people came, seemly to learn the truth. They stopped by and watched. Soon it started to rain, but practitioners continued practicing in the rain and sent forth righteous thoughts. The scene was serene and compassionate. The rain fell harder, and many visitors had to watch from under the roofs of the stores across the street. Many westerners stood in the rain. They were so attracted by the scene that they forgot why they came here. People lined up to get truth clarification material. The Mayor of Vancouver who came to participate in the parade also waited in line and got the last package practitioners had. Many people asked questions related to Falun Gong. Several hundreds of truth-clarifying CDs were distributed in a very short time. It is the power of Dafa.
