Prime Minister of Canada on Diwali
Prime Minister Stephen Harper issued the following statement on Diwali:
“Laureen and I would like to extend our best wishes to all South Asian Canadians and the many people around the world who will be celebrating Diwali – the festival of lights. “Diwali commemorates the triumph of good over evil. It is a time to gather with family
and friends to reflect on the events of the past year and on hopes and aspirations for the
future. It is also a time to count blessings and to remember to help those in need.
“I invite all Canadians to take part in vibrant Diwali festivities across the country and
to experience the rich culture of Canada’s South Asian communities who contribute so
much to the fabric of our nation.
“Happy Diwali!
“Namaste.”
