A safety net that’s not safe—that was the issue at the centre of a recent meeting between Alberta government representatives and the Falun Dafa Association of Calgary.
The parties met on June 8 to discuss issues related to Alberta Culture Minister Heather Klimchuk’s decision last month to cancel Shen Yun Performing Arts’ 2013 shows at the Calgary and Edmonton Jubilee auditoria.
After the local hosts of a classical Chinese dance company raised complaints in the media of professional misconduct at the Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium, Minister of Culture and Community Services Heather Klimchuk responded by cancelling future performances by the group.
