Minister Hussen Marks Portuguese Heritage Month

Canadian Heritage

In June, Canadians across the country will celebrate Portuguese Heritage Month.

As the proud home to over half a million Luso-Canadians, our country has one of the largest Portuguese diasporas in the world. Originally from different parts of Portugal, the community is represented in many regions across Canada and has strived to keep their traditions, languages, and cultures alive. Since the earliest wave of immigration to the present day, Canadians of Portuguese heritage have enriched the fabric of our society with their contributions in art, music, cuisine, sports and other various fields.
