(Minghui.org) On the occasion of the upcoming 15th anniversary of World Falun Dafa Day and the 22st anniversary of the introduction of Falun Dafa to the public, Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Members of Parliament wrote congratulatory letters to the Falun Dafa Association of Canada.

Mr. Harper stated in his letter: “Millions of people around the world have benefited from the teachings of Falun Dafa. Promoting the principles of truthfulness, compassion and forbearance, the practice has found a receptive audience in Canada. I commend the Falun Dafa Association of Canada for sharing this discipline with fellow Canadians.”

Below are three letters from Members of Parliament of Canada.

1. Falun Dafa Brings Immense Value to our Communities Here in Canada

Kevin Lamoureux, MP Winnipeg North May 6, 2014

Today, on Falun Dafa’s 22nd anniversary celebration, I stand with Falun Dafa practitioners around the world especially, with those in areas where practitioners are being persecuted on the basis of their beliefs and values. Together we must ensure that the basic human rights of Falun Dafa practitioners are being upheld. Falun Dafa’s promotion of truthfulness, compassion, and forbearance bring immense value to our communities here in Canada.

Sincerely Kevin Lamoureux, MP Winnipeg North

2. Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance Demonstrate Your Unwavering Dedication to a Free and Fair Society

Greetings on behalf of Lawrence Toet, MP for Elmwood-Transcona Falun Dafa 22nd Anniversary Celebration

It is with great pleasure that I extend my warmest greetings to the Falun Dafa Association of Canada as you celebrate the 22nd anniversary of the introduction of Falun Dafa to the public. I would like to take this opportunity to commend you for your continued commitment to the development of our nation’s rich history and heritage.

Falun Gong practitioners can be very proud of the contributions they continue to make to our society. The guiding principles of truthfulness, compassion, and forbearance, which are the foundation of Falun Dafa, demonstrate your unwavering dedication to a free and fair society.

As Canadians we are free to celebrate our tremendous diversity without fear of persecution or oppression. We can all be proud to live in a country that embraces the cultural diversity of its people and encourages the promotion of different perspectives and traditions.

I thank you for your valuable contributions to our communities and I wish to convey my heartfelt congratulations to the Falun Dafa Association of Canada on this momentous occasion.

Yours truly, Lawrence Toet, M.P. Elmwood- Transcona

3. We Commend Falun Dafa Practitioners Who Practice and Promote Truthfulness, Benevolence and Forbearance

May 13, 2014

Greeting from David Anderson. MP for Cypress Hills – Grasslands

One year ago, the House of Commons unanimously passed Motion 382, which affirmed the importance of religious freedom as a universal fundamental human right.

Today, as Falun Dafa celebrates the 22nd anniversary of its introduction to the public, we remember those who have suffered under the state-led persecution of Falun Gong in China. We are reminded of the importance of protecting and promoting religious freedom here at home and around the world.

We commend those members of Falun Dafa who continue to practice and promote the fundamental values of truth, benevolence and forbearance.

Sincerely, David Anderson, MP Cypress Hills - Grasslands
