[Member spoke in Punjabi] [English] Mr. Speaker, this past Saturday, in my riding of Surrey—Newton, over half a million people from all backgrounds came together to celebrate the birth of Khalsa in one of the largest Khalsa Day and Vaisakhi parades in the entire world. Championed by Gurdwara Sahib Dasmesh Darbar, this annual event showcased the strength and diversity of our great nation. With April being Sikh Heritage Month, I also want to recognize the contributions and accomplishments that Sikh Canadians have made to our country. I urge all members to join me in thanking the organizers and countless volunteers of the Surrey Khalsa Day Vaisakhi Parade and to thank Sikh Canadians across our country, who, over the past 125 years, have helped build Canada into the country it is today.
