The mayor of Coquitlam took a picture with the drummers and the Tian Guo Marching Band and praised Falun Gong practitioners for bringing peace and harmony to the community. Many Chinese immigrants admired Falun Gong’s greatness and praised, “Falun Dafa is Good”.

Coquitlam is located on the outskirts of Vancouver. The annual Teddy Bear Picnic Grande Parade is a community tradition. On June 11, many inhabitants gathered on the side of the road in the early morning to watch the parade. Vancouver Falun Gong practitioners in the parade included those in the Tian Guo Marching Band, drummers, those on the Zhen Shan Ren float, those demonstrating exercises, etc. The audience warmly welcomed them the entire way. Many Chinese spectators accepted Falun Dafa truth clarification brochures and applauded the parade or took photos of practitioners in the parade.

After the parade, Mr. Richard Stewart, mayor of Coquitlam, took a photo with the drummers and the Tian Guo Marching Band and welcomed Falun Dafa to Coquitlam. He praised Falun Gong practitioners for their active participation in community activities that bring peace and harmony to the citizens.
