| Call for Submissions: Commemorating 50 Years of the Jamat's Journeys to Canada |
To commemorate 50 years since the first mass migration of Ismailis coming to Canada from around the world, we invite you to share a photo, video, memento or story that you or your family has treasured, that is symbolic, or behind which is an important story connected to your journey or settlement in Canada. Your story could be selected for inclusion in one of many Canadian Jamati publications, including our newsletters, magazine and on social media. We encourage submissions from Jamati members of various cultures, traditions and geographies, in order to showcase our diversity and strength. If you have something you'd like to share, we'd like to see it, hear it or read it! Visit Stories of Journeys for more information. Make your submission here. |

"Our partnership in Canada has been immensely strengthened, of course, by the presence for more than four decades of a significant Ismaili community. Like most historic global communities the Ismaili peoples have a variegated history, but surely our experience in Canada has been a particularly positive chapter." Mawlana Hazar Imam, Ottawa, February 2014
