It is the third year that Falun Gong practitioners participated in Canada Day parade. Generally, application for this parade needs to be submitted by the required deadline. This year the practitioner coordinator was busy with other work and missed the deadline. The practitioner decided to try to apply anyway and went to organizer's office. The organizer was pleased to see the practitioner. During last few years, Falun Gong practitioners' costumes, float, dancing and cheerfulness had left a deep impression on him and the audience. He said that this time he would place the Falun Gong procession in a most prominent position.

Falun Gong practitioners' procession was led by a practitioner holding a Canadian Flag, followed by banners that read, "Falun Dafa is Great" and "Truth, Compassion, Tolerance", the lion dance, gong and drum team, the fan dance team, the float, the Tang Dynasty costumes and Falun Gong exercise demo team, the flag team and the waist drum team. The performance was rich in Chinese traditional culture. It was colorful and magnificent. Young practitioners distributed truth-clarification literature. Crowds of local residents and tourists stood beside the parade route. They applauded Falun Gong practitioners and many were pleased to accept flyers to learn about Falun Gong. Practitioners demonstrated the grace of Dafa via music, dancing and exercise demo, allowing more people to know Falun Gong.
