Tamil Heritage Month

January is Tamil Heritage month in Canada, a time to consider the vibrant history, culture, perseverance, and strength of Tamil communities across the country.

One of the world's largest Tamil diasporas calls Canada home, and Canadians of Tamil descent have played a significant role in shaping the country as it is today. Tamil communities in Canada continue to play a crucial and inspiring role in our society, including in business, politics, the arts, and other sectors. Tamil Heritage Month is an opportunity for everyone to celebrate and recognize the richness of the Tamil culture and to honour the outstanding and continuing accomplishments and contributions of Tamil-Canadians at DCDSB and across the country.
