On his arrival at the hotel, His Holiness alighted from his car ahead of the entrance to acknowledge the greetings of members of the Tibetan community and other well-wishers who had gathered there. Two children of the community offered the traditional Droso Chema as the people sang a song of welcome in Tibetan.  Among those who received him included Khensur Lobsang Jamyang of the Manjushri Buddhist Centre; Ms. Dicky Choyang, member of the Tibetan Parliament from North America; and Mr. Tashi Wangyal, president of the Tibetan Cultural Association of Quebec (Tibetan Community in Montreal).

On September 7, 2011, His Holiness will be visiting the Manjushri Buddhist Centre and giving an audience to the Tibetan community. He will then deliver a keynote address to the Second Global Congress on World’s Religions after September 11 and give a public talk in the afternoon, organized by the Canada Tibet Committee.
