The Ottawa Asian Heritage Month Society was founded in 2004. It is a non-profit, non- political and non- religious organization consisting of volunteers who are dedicated to and compassionate about celebrating Asian Canadians’ contributions, heritage and culture. We cover stories from Turkey to Japan, and present events ranging from science, sports , lectures, films, arts and many more! Please contact us for more information.
In December 2001, the Senate adopted a motion proposed by Senator Vivienne Poy to officially designate May as Asian Heritage Month in Canada. In May 2002, the Government of Canada signed an official declaration to designate May as Asian Heritage Month.
