Proclamation from Saint-Adrien City Council
The proclamation reads, “Practitioners of Falun Dafa follow the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance in their daily lives, and strive to become better people in any situation and under any conditions.
“Falun Dafa teaches the cultivation of mind and body, and since Mr. Li Hongzhi introduced it to the public in 1992, it has inspired tens of thousands of people to improve their moral standards.
“Falun Dafa transcends racial and cultural boundaries and is practiced by people of all ages, backgrounds and beliefs.
“Falun Dafa is persecuted in China, and its practitioners use peaceful means to fight for the right to freedom of conscience.
“Falun Dafa practitioners in communities across Canada celebrated May 13 World Falun Dafa Day with parades and other public events.
“For the above reasons, the San Adrian Municipal Government declared May 13 as World Falun Dafa Day to honor the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance.”
