Stephen Harper, Prime Minister of Canada
I am pleased to extend my warmest greetings to everyone attending the Divine Performing Arts - 2009 World Tour.
Tonight’s event is a celebration of Chinese heritage, and the rich customs and classic tales that go with it. I am certain that the intricate costumes, brilliant choreography and outstanding musical compositions that you will be treated to this evening will be a wonderful reflection of the beauty and grandeur of 5,000 years of traditional Chinese culture, and of the great pride felt by the Chinese Canadian community.
On behalf of the Government of Canada, please accept my best wishes for a memorable performance.
The Rt. Hon. Stephen Harper, P.C., M.P.
OTTAWA
