While we remember the tragic 1984 violence after PM Indira Gandhi’s assassination, we must also acknowledge the thousands of Hindus killed by militants in Punjab. Official figures record overall civilian deaths by militants exceeding 11,000. Selective highlighting of only one community is not right. As Hindu Canadians we stand together. However politically motivated violence from abroad must not be used to divide communities here in Canada. #cdnpoli

HAPPY HINDU HERITAGE MONTH 2026! November is more than just a month of celebration. It is a time to recognize our rich Hindu heritage, celebrate our contributions to Canada, and reaffirm our strong Hindu identity. Our identity is rooted in thousands of years of civilization, guided by the timeless principles of Dharma, Karma, Seva, and Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam. As Hindu Canadians, we have every reason to be proud of who we are, where we come from, and what we contribute to this wonderful country we call home. A strong Hindu identity and a strong Canadian identity go hand in hand. This Hindu Heritage Month, the Hindu Canadian Foundation (HCF) encourages every Hindu Canadian to: 1. Celebrate your Hindu identity openly and confidently. 2. Educate others about our traditions, sacred symbols, values, and contributions. 3. Engage with schools, libraries, municipalities, and public institutions to ensure Hindu heritage receives the recognition and respect it deserves. 4. Pass On our rich heritage to the next generation, so our children grow up knowing their roots and taking pride in their identity. Our heritage deserves to be celebrated, our contributions deserve to be recognized, and our identity deserves to be respected. This November, let’s make Hindu heritage more visible, better understood, and proudly celebrated across Canada. “Discover. Understand. Celebrate.” #HinduHeritageMonth #HinduCanadianFoundation #ProudlyHinduProudlyCanadian #HinduIdentity #HinduCanadians #HinduHeritage #Canada
