Bosniak Canadians

Bosniak Canadians

Bosniak Canadians are recent but active members of communities across Canada.

In all provinces and territories Bosniak Canadians are active participants in civic life with keen interest in domestic as well as foreign policy matters.  They still seek message of hope and healing, and common sense approach to issues of the day speaks strongly to the experience of many Bosniaks who not long ago came to Canada shores in search of a new beginning, while leaving behind a homeland, the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina,
ravaged by aggression and genocide.

They need to be represented by someone who understands the issues that matter to them. This is true in the case of every-day struggles which Bosniak Canadians share today with all working families in Canada.

After being subjects of war of aggression, genocide, crimes against humanity, Canada has become a new home.
Bosniak Canadians are ready to do their share of civic duty and help make Canada a better place.

The Congress of North American Bosniaks, Canadian Branch is an umbrella organization representing over 50,000 individuals of Bosniak origin living in Canada.

The main objective of the Congress is to act as both a representative of and an advocate for the Bosniak Canadian community through a variety of activities, including presentations to all levels of government.

In an effort to contribute to Canada's multicultural society, the Bosniak Canadian Community actively seeks to educate and share with Canadians the beauty of Bosniak and Bosnian and Herzgovian culture and history.
The Bosniak Canadian Community has organized numerous lectures, panel discussions and other events.
In turn, our efforts have been recognized by organizations and dignitaries from both Bosnia and Herzegovina and Canada.
