WORLD RELIGIONS
CONFERENCE
December 2, 2006
A Personal Message from the Premier
On behalf of the Government of Ontario, I am delighted to extend warm
greetings to everyone attending the 26th World Religions Conference,
presented by Ahmadiyya Movement in Islam and Ahmadiyya Muslim Students
Association, University of Waterloo and Wilfred Laurier University.
In Canada, we are very fortunate because ours is a nation that embraces
diversity and overcomes challenges through constructive dialogue. And,
because Ontario is home to individuals from virtually all cultures, we
believe that mutual respect and a genuine desire for understanding are key
to a peaceful world.
The World Religions Conference embodies these very values as it brings
together people of beliefs in a spirit of cross-cultural and inter-faith
appreciation and acceptance. I commend everyone in attendance for taking
part in this significant initiative.
Please accept my best wishes for a memorable and inspirational
gathering.
Dalton McGuinty
