๐ Chuseok (์ถ์) โ Korea's harvest full moon festival โ is one of the year's biggest celebrations.
Families travel across the country to gather, bow to their ancestors in a ritual called charye (์ฐจ๋ก), and share songpyeon โ half-moon rice cakes filled with sesame, chestnut, or red bean.
It's a time for gratitude, roots, and really, really good food. ๐
Think Thanksgiving meets the harvest moon โ but with hanbok, makgeolli, and a side of ancestral reverence.
Chuseok falls on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month โ this year it lands in early October.

These are wrong on all levels. Falun Dafa isn't a religion and it's definitely not a cult. People that practice Falun Dafa must follow the principle Truthfullness Compassion and Tolerance, they must cultivate love & compassion toward everyone, there's no hatreds or discrimination toward anyone.
In Japan, bowing is more than a greeting โ itโs a sign of respect, gratitude, apology, and humility. The depth and duration of a bow often reflect the level of sincerity and social etiquette in Japanese culture.

As Chinese FM Wang Yi meets PM Carney in Ottawa today โ Beijing's first such visit in a decade โ it's worth asking: who else has Beijing been influencing in Canada's capital?
Last year, Ottawa's NAC quietly dropped Shen Yun from its 2026 lineup. The official reasons: contract issues. But MPs and human rights lawyers warned the move aligned suspiciously well with CCP transnational repression efforts targeting Falun Gong performers.

The film is over.
The operation is not.
Forced organ harvesting from prisoners of conscience in China is not history โ it isย ongoing, extensively documented, and dangerously ignored.
Canada is signing deals with this regime right now.
How much longer can we look away? ๐
This woman lost her sister. Then lost her mother.
All because a government decided a peaceful spiritual practice was a threat.
That same government is now Canada's trade partner.
We are not just doing business with a country. We are choosing sides.

Every testimony tonight revealed a darker layer.
A young woman added this one:
Healthy teenagers vanishing in her Chinese hometown โ for years โ with no explanation.
Organ harvesting has expanded to Uyghurs, Christians, and now the young and the strong.
She said she felt heartbroken and hopeless.
We understand why.
But hopeless is exactly what they want us to feel.
Don't. ๐ฏ๏ธ
Share this. Speak up. The world needs to know.

In America and other free countries, patients wait months or even years for an organ.
But in China, transplant wait lists are measured in weeksโor even days.
For twenty years, Iโve investigated a crime almost too horrific to name, which has culminated in my new book: โKilled To Order.โ
This is the dark reality: When someone decides to go to China and pay a hefty sum for a scheduled transplant, then on the other side, an incarcerated prisoner of conscience, who has already been blood-typed and tissue-typed, is likely being killed to order.
Iโm in Toronto today at the Legislative Assembly of Ontario breaking down two decades of research and answering audience questions.
