Bhagat Puran Singh was a Sikh humanitarian who dedicated his life to helping the sick and the homeless. His work teaches us that solidarity means taking care of those in need. What small act of kindness can you do today? #SikhHeritageMonth

Sikhs have been in Canada for over 125 years, overcoming racism and exclusion, including the Komagata Maru incident of 1914, where Sikhs were denied entry into Canada. Today, Sikh Canadians continue to contribute in all fields, from politics to medicine.

“While there is much light in today’s world, there remains a disheartening darkness, inhumanity spawned by ignorance & hate... Passover recalls that with vision & action we can join hands with others... kindling lights along paths to a brighter future."
