16 March 2019, Calgary - Consul General Gilberto Asuque (5th
from right of 2nd row) of the Philippine Consulate General in
Calgary shared comments and suggestions on the various programs and events
being planned by various Filipino community organizations in Alberta in their
celebration of Philippine Heritage Month in June of each year. The Alberta Provincial Government has
proclaimed June of each year as Philippine Heritage Month in recognition of
“the significant contribution of Filipino-Canadians in Alberta to the social,
economic, cultural and historical richness of the Province of Alberta” and who
“represent a vibrant and dynamic component of our cultural mosaic.” The Federal
Government has also issued a Resolution declaring June of each year as
Philippine Heritage Month all over Canada.
