(Clearwisdom.net) From March 15 to 19, Vancouver practitioners held photo exhibits and a signature drive outside the Vancouver Art Museum, in Chinatown and at the Metrotown mall in Burnaby to call upon the public to pay close attention to the atrocities happening inside the Sujiatun Concentration Camp. They collected signatures for an appeal letter which calls on the Canadian government to condemn the abhorrent crimes of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and form a delegation to investigate the concentration camp. The letter will be delivered to Parliament.

Vancouver citizen Mark Widdows learned about the news from internet. He then came to practitioners' 24-hour protest site in front of the Chinese Consulate to learn more about the persecution. He said that he would start to learn Falun Gong and asked where he could buy Zhuan Falun. He then went to the Vancouver Art Museum where he told many passersby the truth of Falun Gong in rain.

A young lady told practitioners that she would return to Mainland China soon. Nevertheless, she signed her name to express her support for Falun Gong because she found a familiar face from the photo display. The practitioner she knew very well was persecuted to death and had organs removed by the CCP.

At a grocery store in Chinatown, a Chinese didn't believe Sujiatun concentration camp exists and refused to listen to practitioners' explanation. At that very moment, a middle-aged Chinese stepped forward and said to him: I just came from China, and I know how corrupt the government is. The officials never serve people and only want money. You see they are now trying to make profit by selling organs removed from people alive. We are all human. How can you have no sympathy?" The man said that the practitioners were arrested because made trouble, so the other gentleman replied: Falun Gong is practiced in so many countries, why can't people in China practice? The Chinese government must be wrong.

At the Metrotown mall in Burnaby, a senior Russian lady stayed at the photo exhibit for quite a while. She said: I lived in the Soviet Union in the past. I know the crimes of communist party very well. People in North America have no experience with communism, and you should continue your hard work to let them know all these atrocities.

During the 5 days of activities, practitioners collected several thousand signatures. Ms. Xiong collected signatures in Chinatown. She said: "In the past, people who signed our petitions were mainly westerners. However, this time I noticed that many Chinese stepped forward to show their support. Some even left their phone numbers."

A middle-aged lady said: "It [the persecution] is too brutal. Every Chinese should step forward [to resist the persecution]." Some civilians told practitioners:

"What you are doing is very good, thank you!"
