“I would like to thank the Cape Breton Island Centre for Immigration for organizing this festival and for promoting multiculturalism, diversity and inclusion.”

Dear Friends:

I am pleased to extend my warmest greetings to everyone attending the 2019 Hello Cape Breton Festival.

This event brings the community together to celebrate Cape Breton Island’s rich cultural diversity. I am certain that everyone in attendance will appreciate this opportunity to learn more about their fellow citizen’s countries of origin.

I would like to thank the Cape Breton Island Centre for Immigration for organizing this festival and for promoting multiculturalism, diversity and inclusion. You can take pride in the knowledge that your efforts have strengthened your community and enriched Canada as a whole.

Please accept my best wishes for a memorable and enjoyable experience.

Sincerely,
The Rt. Hon. Justin P. J. Trudeau, P.C., M.P. Prime Minister of Canada

We are in Unama’ki, one of the seven traditional and unceded ancestral territories of the people of Mi’kma’ki. This territory is covered by the Treaties of Peace and Friendship which the Mi’kmaq first signed with the British Crown in 1726.

We wish to recognize and honour this understanding of the lands on which we reside. It is from here, on these lands, that we work to create and support a culture of self-reliance and vibrancy.
