Falun Gong practitioners staged a mock torture in Edmonton Saturday to highlight human rights abuses in China as the country's president visits Canada.
Among the demonstrators outside the Old Strathcona Farmers' Market was Wenyu Liu, who spent nearly three years in a Chinese jail.
Liu, who now studies mechanical engineering at the University of Calgary, says the mental torture he endured was worse than the physical abuse.
He says at one point he spent eight months in solitary confinement, deprived of all human contact.
