(Clearwisdom.net) If we were to talk about what is the same as last year at the Ottawa Tulip Festival, we might say that the decorated boat parade on May 23 is still the main event. If we were to talk about the difference between this and previous years, we definitely could say that more and more Chinese Canadians are attracted to the Falun Gong peaceful cultivation group.

This is the fourth year Falun Gong practitioners have participated in the Boat Parade at the Tulip Festival. In the past, when a lot of Chinese Canadians were deceived by China's propaganda, they didn't want to see the Falun Gong boat. After persistent truth clarification, more and more overseas Chinese now wave to the Falun Gong practitioners with smiles, just like non-Chinese. Even before the flower boat parade, many of them came up to the Falun Gong boat, took photos of the celestial maidens and asked about the recent progress of Falun Gong.
One couple that recently immigrated to Canada from northeast China said, "You did the right thing by clarifying the truth. Jiang tortures Falun Gong practitioners harder even than Party members experienced in old times." When a practitioner asked them to tell the facts to more Chinese people, they willingly agreed, saying, "Please, be sure that we will."
The host introduced Falun Gong to the spectators and numerous audience members with a live broadcast in both English and French, and Falun Gong's boat received loud cheers wherever it sailed.
During the Tulip Festival, many practitioners practiced the exercises at a nearby park along the Rideau Canal, and many people received truth-clarification materials, CD's and balloons.
