Senator Tobias (Jun) Enverga was pleased to celebrate Ati-Atihan with the United Aklanon Association of Toronto at the Chinese Cultural Centre of Greater Toronto in Scarborough, Ontario on January 30th, 2016.

Speaking on behalf of the Senate of Canada, Senator Enverga cited the group for keeping alive the proud and colourful traditions of the Philippines, and that by doing so, contribute to the wonderfully diverse mosaic that is the foundation of Canadian society.

He shared the experience of the warm welcome he received during his visit to the Aklan province of the Philippines, where he participated in the Ati-Atihan there.


The UAAT members were also joined by Ontario Opposition leader, Patrick Brown, Toronto Councillor Raymond Cho, Deputy Consul General Jesusa Paez of the Philippine Consulate in Toronto, members of the Philippine Canadian Charitable Foundation (PCCF), and representatives from the business sector like iRemit and UMAC.(********Fe P.
