Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize Dr. Arun Garg for his lifetime of leadership, service and dedication to improving public health in British Columbia. For more than 50 years, including several decades with Fraser Health, Dr. Garg has advanced culturally informed health care. He has championed prevention, healthy living and community-based care, while bridging traditional knowledge with modern medicine. As the founder of Canada India Network Society and a leader of the South Asian Health Institute, Dr. Garg has brought together physicians, researchers and community leaders to improve culturally informed care and healthier living. Dr. Garg’s vision, humility and commitment to teamwork have created a legacy for generations to come. Please join me in thanking Dr. Arun Garg for his amazing service to our communities and to Canada.
