[OTTAWA, ON] – November 1, 2024 – The Honourable Bardish Chagger, Minister of Diversity and Inclusion and Youth, today issued the following statement:
“In November, we celebrate Lebanese Heritage Month in Canada and recognize the significant contributions that Canadians of Lebanese descent have made to our country.
“Lebanese immigrants and their descendants have played an important role in shaping Canada’s diverse and inclusive society. They have made significant contributions to our cultural, economic, and social fabric.
“The Lebanese community in Canada is known for its vibrant culture and traditions. Lebanese Canadians have enriched our country with their delicious food, music, dance, and art. They have also made significant contributions to our economy, especially in the areas of business, healthcare, and education.
“Lebanese Canadians have also made a difference in our communities. They are active in politics, advocacy, and volunteerism. They work to build bridges between different communities and to promote understanding and cooperation.
“In recent years, we have seen an increase in the number of Lebanese Canadians who have fled their homeland due to conflict and persecution. Canada is proud to welcome these newcomers and to provide them with a safe and welcoming home.
“As we celebrate Lebanese Heritage Month, let us take the time to learn more about the Lebanese Canadian community and their contributions to our country. Let us also recommit ourselves to building an inclusive and welcoming society where everyone feels valued and respected.”
