The Overseas Coordinator of the Karachi Librarian Association (KLA), Muhammad Younis Hashmi, actively engaged in the promotion of librarianship, recently met eminent Canadian legislators which included Douglas Robert Ford Jr, who has served as the 26th and current premier of Ontario since June 2018. Zee Hamid and Sammy Ijaz were also present on the occasion.
Ford Jr has been leader of the Progressive Conservative Party since March 2018. He represents the Toronto riding of Etobicoke North in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario. He is being hailed as Prime Ministerial candidate in the next elections of Canada.
Zee Hamid, Member of Parliament, was elected to legislative Assembly Ontario in by-election on May 2, 2024. He represents the electoral district of Milton as a member of the Ontario Progressive Conservative Party. He was born in Karachi, Pakistan, while his family came from Bihar, India. Having immigrated to Canada as a teenager, he has a Bachelor of Mathematics and Computer Science degree from the University of Waterloo.
Sammy Ijaz is one of the regional councillors of Milton. The 29-year-old had defeated a couple of sitting councillors in the Milton Council Race. He had won the contest for Ward 3 Regional Councillor with 38.13% of the vote, beating out 3-term incumbent Mike Cluett and 3-term town Councillor Rick Di Lorenzo.
One of the founding members of KLA, Younis Hashmi, has relocated in Canada’s vibrant city of Milton, after having been a practicing librarian for more than four decades in his home country, working for Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) with distinction. He has also stayed in touch with political and social circles besides interacting with fellow professionals of his field.
Very well.
