Mr. Speaker, it was truly an honour for me to attend Diwali celebrations with Hindu and Sikh communities.
It was also a great honour to be part of the various Eid ul-Fitr celebrations with Muslims in the Mosques and homes throughout our community. The dedication to faith, family and community is truly inspirational.
It is during the time of Eid that we should all celebrate the positive contribution of the Muslim community to our great country.
I am sure that everyone had a happy Diwali.
I send my best wishes on this joyous occasion to my Muslim brothers and sisters who celebrated Eid yesterday and who are celebrating today.
Eid Mubarek!
