(Minghui.org) Falun Gong practitioners were invited to participate in the Niagara Grape & Wine Festival Parade on September 24, 2022, the largest and longest running wine festival in Canada. This year’s event, which takes place in the city of St. Catharines, Ontario, attracted more than 100,000 people, including 30,000 visitors from out of town. Falun Gong practitioners’ Tian Guo Marching Band and waist drummers gave resounding performances much enjoyed by the spectators lining the streets.
