經過各工作人員日以繼夜不斷辛勤工作，這個差不多十年的計劃終於夢想成真，中華門將於九月十二日隆重揭幕！當日在中華門附近的多倫多東河谷公園將會有一連串慶祝活動：包括特色攤位、舞獅、歌唱、粵劇、中國舞及功夫表演。當日活動免費入場，一定會吸引不少華裔及非華裔市民參與，正好就是興建中華門的最重要目的：促進族裔間的和諧及團結各界僑胞。


After almost ten years of hard work of the committee, the “Zhong Hua Men” dream will come true to the Chinese community!

To celebrate this memorable moment, there will be a grand opening ceremony at Riverdale Park on September 12th, 2009.

There will be many different traditional Chinese performances at Riverdale Park, such as Lion Dance, singing performance, Chinese Dance, Chinese Opera and Kung Fu.There will also be food booths and other vendors at the event.

This free event is open to everyone, to help us celebrate the ultimate goal of Zhong Hua Men: to gain harmony and unity between different ethnic communities.
