Statement by Official Opposition Leader Thomas Mulcair on Guru Nanak’s birthday

To all followers of the Sikh faith, I extend my best wishes during Gurpurab.

New Democrats join the many Sikhs gathered this festive season to celebrate the teachings of Guru Nanak Sahib Ji.

It is our shared values of Kirat Karni, Vand Kay Shukna and Seva that allow us to renew our responsibility to help those who are less fortunate.

As Sikhs across Canada celebrate the extraordinary life and achievements of Guru Nanak Sahib Ji, may this Guruprab be a renewal of our commitment to collectively work together for a fairer, greener and more prosperous Canada, where no one is left behind.

Aap sabh noo, Guru Nanak Sahib Ji de parkash utsav dee lakh lakh vadaee hove ji.
