Remembering Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II
The members of the Centre for Canadian Studies at Brock University express our profound sadness at the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. For most of us, she has been the only monarch we have ever had, and we admire her devotion and service to her country and the commonwealth. We also send our condolences to her family. No matter who you are, prince or pauper, rich or poor, royalist or republican, the death of a loved one can be a profoundly sad moment and reminds us all of our shared humanity. We wish them all well at this difficult time.The Centre for Canadian Studies

Using Road Today, a magazine serving Canada’s South Asian trucking community, Professor Bhalla traces the history of South Asian truckers in Canada. Her talk addresses Canadian immigration policies which facilitated this migration and draws attention to the challenges immigrant truckers face. It also provides a window into the emergence of South Asian entrepreneurs within the trucking industry.
