Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to rise today in recognition of Tamil Heritage Month.
Over the month of January, events were held all across Canada to celebrate the richness of the Tamil culture and language as well as the immense social, economic, cultural, and political contributions that the Tamil community has made to Canada. Tamil Heritage Month also provides us with an opportunity to learn about the unique and distinct culture of the thriving Tamil community in Canada. Through this knowledge, we are better able to understand and celebrate the diversity and individual values of the different communities that make up Canada's dynamic multicultural fabric.
I would like to acknowledge the resiliency of the Tamil community as it continues to overcome hardships, challenges, and to fight for social justice and equality for all.
New Democrats look forward to continuing to work with Tamil Canadians to build a more just and fair Canada.
Happy Tamil Heritage Month.
