Organizers of the Vancouver Chinatown Lunar New Year parade have changed course and rescinded their rejection of two progressive and LGBTQ+ groups that they previously barred from participating.

Organizing committee spokesman Frank Huang says letters have been sent to the groups Chinatown Together and Lunar New Year For All, approving their participation in Sunday’s parade.

Huang didn’t give any reasons for the reversal in a brief interview in Mandarin late Friday.

In previous letters and statements, the committee had told Chinatown Together that it couldn’t march because of a ban on “political  activism,” while it rejected another group it didn’t identify because of  “the potential for disruption and protests.”
