In collaboration with the Luminato Festival, the Institute for Canadian Citizenship (ICC) hosted an Enhanced Citizenship Ceremony on June 7, 2023.

JRS, the co-founder of the ICC, was the special guest speaker at the ceremony. JRS encouraged Canada’s newest citizens to become involved in their communities, and especially though the arts:

“The culture of a country is the basis of the country. Therefore, being interested in the arts in a country is one of the most important ways you can be a part of what Canada is and what it has built itself to be.”

You can read all about the ceremony and see some photos.
