VICTORIA – Premier Christy Clark has made the following statement on the opening of the Aga Khan Museum and Ismaili Centre in Toronto, Ontario:
“I want to congratulate Prime Minister Stephen Harper and the Aga Khan on the opening of the Aga Khan Museum and Ismaili Centre in Toronto. This new centre was built with the hard work of the Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN), a group of international organizations and social enterprises overseen by His Highness.
“B.C. has a strong Ismaili community, with the Ismaili Centre in Burnaby being the first such centre to be built in Canada. We want to take this opportunity to celebrate with B.C.’s Ismaili community and to show our support for the role these centres play in promoting friendship and diversity and enhancing relationships among faith communities, governments and civil society.
“I invite His Highness to visit British Columbia on his next trip to Canada to see the many contributions of B.C.’s Ismaili community and to help strengthen relationships between the AKDN, B.C. Ismailis and B.C. organizations that promote diversity, knowledge and inclusiveness.
“On behalf of all British Columbians, I want to join the Ismaili community in offering my congratulations on the opening of the new Aga Khan Museum and Ismaili Centre in Ontario and I look forward to a future visit from His Highness to British Columbia.”
