“We’re all better off because the Ismaili-Canadian community calls Ontario home,” remarked the Honourable Dalton McGuinty, Premier of Ontario.
The Premier spoke on 29 April at a gathering of Ismaili institutional and youth leaders at Headquarters Jamatkhana in Toronto. Recognising the long-standing relationship between the Jamat and the province, and the contributions that Ismailis have made to Ontario and Canada, he was joined by Ontario Ministers Kathleen Wynne and Charles Sousa, as well as Members of Provincial Parliament Reza Moridi and Michael Coteau.
Mohamed Manji, President of the Ismaili Council for Canada and Karim Sunderji, President of the Ismaili Council for Ontario, welcomed the Premier and other distinguished guests.
