August 14 marks Pakistan’s Independence Day. We join the Pakistani community in Canada and around the world to celebrate Pakistan’s Independence Day. Canada and Pakistan established diplomatic relations in 1947, and has only grown stronger in the decades through people to people ties. Together, we can advance issues on climate change, and advance peace and security. The day is for all Pakistani Canadians to celebrate with festivities! Happy Independence Day Pakistan! Please stay tuned for the Prime Minister’s statement.
