In Markham, Ontario, Conservative candidate Lionel Loganathan has embraced his Tamil roots, having spoken more Tamil in the last two-and-a-half years than ever before. His family’s immigration story from Sri Lanka in the 1980s resonates with the diverse population of Markham-Thornhill, where over 350 languages are spoken. As the campaign approaches its conclusion, Loganathan represents the party’s outreach efforts to immigrant communities, which are crucial for gaining support in this vote-rich area currently held by the Liberals.
