It is a fact that the Sikh Dharam Parchar in the foreign countries is going on in a better and largest scale then in Punjab. There are many organizations in those countries which are working day and night for strengthening the culture and spiritual image of Sikhs in those countries. The Sikh heritage museum of Canada, situating as Brampton is one such organization which is aimed at advancing and promoting knowledge, understanding and preservation of the cultural and religious life of Sikh people. It celebrates the Canadian Sikh experience and its vibrant history, explores the richness and complexity of Sikh spirituality and identity, and commemorates Sikh history. The Museum is committed to building a strong and diverse community that promotes harmony, friendship and understanding. The persons associated with this museum are highly dedicated, learning and fully conscious of their duty towards their community. S. Kulbir Singh Dhillon, who has been the Chairman of this museum is an avid reader of Sikh history and particularly enjoys the legacy of the Lion of Lahore, Maharaja Ranjeet Singh.
