February is Black Heritage Month. It is a time to celebrate the many achievements and contributions of Black Leaders, who throughout history have done so much to make Canada the culturally diverse, compassionate and the prosperous nation we know today. It is also an opportunity for the majority of Canadians to learn about the experiences of Black Canadians in our society, and the vital role this community has played throughout our shared history.
