A
Member
for
kelowna
mission-
thank
you
honorable
speaker,
I'm
going
to
piggyback
on
on
your
introduction
there,
because
today
is
an
important
day
for
many
british
columbians
as
people
here
and
around
the
world
celebrate
vasaki
the
holiest
day
in
the
sikh
calendar.
It's
a
special
time
of
year
commemorating
the
founding
of
the
khalsa.
A
Traditionally
it's
marked
by
colorful
festivities,
including
parades
community
events
and
families
and
friends,
coming
together
to
celebrate
at
home
in
kelowna,
I
love
walking
in
the
annual
vasaki
parade
enjoying
a
meal
together
and
celebrating
with
my
sikh
friends.
I
love
the
bright
colors,
but
mostly
the
smiles.
