Paas-Lang The Canadian Press Published Tuesday, October 22, 2019 4:54AM EDT The Liberals once more won the most seats in the House of Commons, but this time they do not have an outright majority.

On the local level, the Toronto City Council voted in No- vember to have June as Filipino Heritage Month in Toron- to, Ontario's capital, coinciding with the celebration of Philippine independence day on June 12. Salma Zahid, MP for Scarborough Centre, said on Thurs- day, Jan. 18, that she filed a motion in Parliament which "recognizes the contributions of the Filipino community have made to the socio-economic fabric" of Canada.
