Asian Heritage Month is an opportunity for us to learn more about the diverse culture and history of Asian communities in Canada, as well as to acknowledge the many achievements and contributions of people of Asian origin who, throughout our history, have done so much to make Canada the country we know and love.
The theme for the 2025 Asian Canadian Heritage Month is “Asian Canadian Legacy: We Contribute. We serve.”, which reflects the spirit of solidarity at the heart of Unifor’s work—where Asian members have long strengthened our union through their leadership, service, and unwavering commitment to justice.
On May 1, the new four-part original docu-series “Not Your Butter Chicken”, directed by Priyanka Desai will be available on CBC Gem in celebration of Asian Heritage Month. The four-part TELUS original series celebrates the recipes, untold stories and life lessons of South Asians in Western Canada in B.C. and Alberta through the eyes of celebrated Vancouver culinary mind, Shiva Reddy.
