Canadian Hindus
A Vibrant Community Shaping Canada's Future
Canada’s more than one million Hindus are found in every province and territory and are proud contributors to the nation’s cultural, business, and philanthropic landscape. Deeply embedded in their communities and well-integrated into mainstream society, Canadian Hindus play a vital role in the country’s social fabric.
The Canadian National Council of Hindusm (CNCH) is the unifying voice for Hindus in Canada—bringing individuals and organizations together, defending community interests, and building bridges with other religious and cultural groups across the country. CNCH is committed to increasing Canadian Hindus’ influence and prominence in Canadian public life. CNCH believes in the Hindu value of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam, the world is one family.
