I would like to extend my best wishes to the Ismaili community and all those celebrating the birth of His Highness Prince Karim Aga Khan IV on his 76th birthday.

Today is an opportunity for all of us to recognize the deeds of His Highness as one of the most prominent and influential spiritual leaders in the world who has worked tirelessly to improve the quality of life for others regardless of faith, ethnicity or gender.

Through the Aga Khan Foundation, His Highness has committed to find sustainable solutions to the complex problems causing global poverty while the Aga Khan Development Network focuses on environment, health, education, culture, rural development, disaster reduction, the promotion of private-sector enterprise and the revitalization of historic cities.

His Highness's influence extends beyond his own community. In Canada, not only does His Highness connect with Ismailis but his work has helped countless others through the Canadian branch of the Aga Khan Development Network.

As we commemorate the birth of His Highness, we also celebrate our province's rich cultural diversity, one that preserves the culture and heritage of others.

On behalf of all British Columbians, I congratulate those celebrating the birth of High Highness Prince Karim Aga Khan!

John Yap
Minister Responsible for Multiculturalism
