Dedicated to all things green, Toronto's third largest consumer exhibition, the Green Living Show, took place from April 24 through 26, Golden Year 6 (2009), at the Canadian National Exhibition (CNE) in Toronto. The event attracted a large number of participants, from big corporations to environmentally friendly individuals, organizations and businesses.

For this rare opportunity, the Toronto Center initiates organized themselves to spread the “Be Veg, Go Green, Save the Planet” message. Apart from displaying Master’s publications, giving out SOS flyers and other relevant informative materials, sample booklets and SupremeMasterTV.com pens, they set up a big LCD to play SOS DVDs. To meet the demands of the busy venue and the high number of interested visitors, many initiates were stationed at the booth at all times to serve the delicious vegan food samples and tell people about the most immediate and effective solution to the urgent climate crisis.

During these three days, thousands of guests and the event’s volunteer working staff visited their booth to participate in the cooking demonstrations and to taste the delicious and nutritious vegan foods, all of which generated incredibly good responses. The initiates also shared some warm loving portions with their neighbors in nearby booths as well as with the security guards, receiving such comments as, “Thanks to you, we have really great food.” The working team was delighted to see that most of the event’s sponsored cooking shows were vegetarian or vegan. Several people also expressed interest in Master’s books and the Quan Yin Method of meditation.

At the conclusion of the show, even though some initiates had not slept for several nights and others had lost their voices, their hearts were full of happiness and gratitude to Master for giving them such wonderful opportunities to serve the public.
