The organizer thanked Falun Gong practitioners for their contribution over many years. Several spectators noted that they had seen the Falun Gong entry for several years and considered Divine Land Marching Band “uplifting.”

“Here Comes Falun Gong!”

“This is the second time we've see Falun Gong in this parade. The first time left a deep impression on my son,” said Ms. Zhang from Taiwan. “He really likes it [the Falun Gong procession], so he was excited to see it again. He grabbed me and said, 'Look, Mom! Here comes Falun Gong!”
“It's Time to Hold Them Accountable”
Ms. Zhang from Chongqing, China, commented, “The older people playing the waist drums are really admirable--positive and full of energy. Even though they danced for such a long time and were so hot, they kept smiling.”
She felt sure that the high-ranking officials who are persecuting Falun Gong practitioners would be brought to justice: “It's time to hold them accountable! What they have done is totally unacceptable.”
“Way to Go, Falun Gong!”
The Niu's and their friends from Shanghai were among the parade spectators. They gave Falun Gong a thumbs-up, “Way to go, Falun Gong!”
“Spectacular, uplifting beyond words. Definitely not seen in China!” Mr. Niu added.
Ms. Zhou from Sichuan told the reporter, “Falun Dafa is great! I'm so excited. I have never seen anything like this, having just left China. I don't know how to describe my feeling – this is definitely not something we can see in China.”
“We Will Find the Exercise Location”
Mr. and Ms. Li, a couple from Hunan Province, waved to the Falun Gong procession. Ms. Li said, “As a Chinese, I'm proud and happy to see Falun Gong. Such a nice group and so popular! The persecution in China is truly wrong.”
Mr. Li echoed, “It's a pleasure to see them. We will look for the group exercise location in Mississauga.”
“I Know Falun Gong Is Good!”
Ms. Chen from Guangzhou immigrated from China 55 years ago. She danced with the waist drum music and said, “They are so good! I have played a waist drum, too. It's great to see traditional Chinese culture outside of China! I know Falun Gong is good.”
Local resident Emily said that it was great to see the Falun Gong procession each year.
