The establishment of Sikh Federation (Canada) was essential to address a growing and urgent need for a representative body that advocates for the Sikh community’s interests and rights across Canada. The Sikh community faces complex challenges, both at home and internationally, from issues of transnational repression and foreign interference to rising anti-Sikh hate and disinformation. A grassroots organization, like Sikh Federation (Canada), that is rooted in Sikh institutions and communities across the country, is uniquely positioned to respond to these challenges with a focused mandate of empowering Sikh advocacy.
Sikh Federation (Canada) provides a non-partisan platform to mobilize the Sikh community, strengthen grassroots efforts, and engage with all levels of government to ensure that the rights of Sikhs are not only protected but actively supported. By building alliances with like-minded communities and organizations, the Federation fosters solidarity and joint efforts to combat discrimination, creating a more just and inclusive society for all.
