“Today is the Sikh day of commemoration – Bandi Chhorh Divas.
“Coinciding with Diwali, the Festival of Lights, Bandi Chhorh Divas celebrates the release of the sixth Guru from political imprisonment, as well as his skillful negotiations and actions which also led to the release of 52 imprisoned Hindus along with him.
“Guru Hargobind Ji refused to leave until the others were also freed with him. This story epitomizes the importance of looking beyond one’s own interests and to strive for justice and betterment for all.
“On this day of celebration, we remember the message of hope, love and freedom for all as set by Sri Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji.
“As Canadians, we can all be proud to live in a country that values diversity and champions the values of democracy, freedom, and the rule of law.
“May this Bandi Chhorh Divas and Diwali bring you and your family happiness, good health and prosperity.
“Bandi Chhorh Divas Diyaan Lakh Lakh Vadiayan!”
